Lockout to be lifted?

[phinfanNY08]

According to mort, players amd owners are putting provisions together that if the cba is approved, the players will have to re certify as a union starting Friday. Facilities will be re opened and training camp will open next week. Owners are taking a dinner break and the players are having an 8pm conference call.

Owners have approved the CBA. Would like to see who voted how.

Good news. As soon as the players agree, I'm giving someone a hug. Doesn't matter who, just the first person I see. If the wife isn't home by then, I think some poor lady walking her dog outside is gonna get accosted...

The owners passed the CBA with a 31-0 vote. The Raiders for some reason refused to vote.

That's typical. Al Davis was probably stuck in the bathroom while they held the vote.

Doesn't sound like the lockout will be lifted tonight. Word is possibly sometime next week.

I think DeMaurice Smith wants to drag it out - power play!

Was Al Davis in the bathroom decaying?
