Full negotiating teams for the NFL and locked out players reconvened Wednesday in New York to try to apply the elusive finishing touches to a deal to end the sport’s shutdown. People in the sport said it appeared an agreement in principle between the two sides was close and estimated it was likely to be completed between Friday and next Tuesday, barring further complications. Several people not involved in the negotiations but familiar with them said they did not expect a handshake deal to be completed Wednesday, but they said an an agreement in principle was possible in coming days. By some estimates, a pact is possible by Friday, but the two sides have been within striking distance of an agreement for several weeks, and previously have suffered negotiating setbacks that kept them from reaching an accord. Other people, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the deliberations are at a sensitive stage, said a deal might not come until Tuesday. Source: Washington Post

:Loco: Just heard on the radio the rookie wage scale is just about agreed on and it's going to start this year. Screw You Cam Newton.
I don't care for these "updates" any more. Until there's a video of the bastards signing on the dotted line, I'm staying neutral.
