NFL spokesman Greg Aiello, echoing the league view obviously, seemed certain in an e-mail to Sports Illustrated's Peter King that the league won't lose an appeal in the StarCaps case by Vikings defensive tackles Kevin and Pat Williams. "We believe there are very significant barriers to a successful suit in the Minnesota courts against our collectively bargained program with the NFL Players Association that covers 32 teams and all NFL players," he wrote. "We are not concerned with the case as it now stands." Source: Sports Illustrated
