[QUOTE="Blk04L, post: 16297734, member: 48574"] NFL wanted a cap so they could cap the money to the players but not themselves. I don't spend money on the NFL as in Sunday ticket, actual tickets or jerseys. I still watch the Cowboys but not the Dolphins as they are tanking. Holdouts have always occurred. For example Emmitt Smith went without a contract in 1993 until the Cowboys went 0-2 and Jerry caved into his contract demands. I think now with social media and the NFL/providers trying to feed you news 24/7 you just get overloaded with sports news. Every day the NFLN or ESPN would talk about Zeke missing camp. I stopped watching all the pregame/weekly shit due to it just being a bunch of crap/overload. The holding part is simply the refs calling holding penalties when in the past they wouldn't. Solution? Stop holding. The NFL doesn't have fully guaranteed contracts. There's a signing bonus, partial guarantees and full guarantees, which sometimes come with stipulations or are only covered for injury. So, a 5 year 100 mil deal doesn't mean the player will get 100mil pre tax. Especially since it's rare players play through second contracts. The NFL will go nowhere anytime soon. They own the sports viewership market. IIRC some regular season games get more views than the NBA finals. The concussion issue won't hurt the league. Middle class to upper class parents may hold their kids out but there are tons of lower class kids who will play to get money. XFL will have a large hurdle to survive a season or two. [/QUOTE]
