JR condescending to Peyton Manning during CBA meeting?

[Happy Panther]

Sponsors and naming rights are not included...there are so many profits not known...

Those are mostly known as well though right?

I should be able to google the big deals like BofA stadium right?

So...let's figure out what Richardson's making per year and send it to Manning....that way he can draw him a pie chart and stuff....

This has been a good day. I have been nursing a hangover and didn't feel like working before a client dinner tonight. The huddle in a dark room has cleared my head.

I'm out bitches

Can someone please send me Jerry Richardson's email address in a PM? Thanks

9 more credit hours to my MBA and my Labor Relations and Collective Bargaining course goes into detail on how CBA negotiations should and should not be handled. Richardson should teach a course in what not to do during CBA negotiations. Collective bargaining is all about concessions. Richardson has made it clear that no concessions will be made and during his expletive laiden speach he made it clear the owners will take back the NFL. The fact is if the NFL is not careful, then they will be in violation of the Nation Labor Relations Act and the NLRB who was established by the US congress will find the NFL's actions during the labor negotiations to be in violation of their good faith bargaining obligation. Reasonalbe efforts demonstrated by both management and labor during labor negotiations, means both sides to meet, confer and make written offers. Both sides must show "reasonable" intent to set the terms of employment in a CBA. Richardson and the NFL will be found guilty of boulwarism "take it or leave it" bargaining tactics if they continue jamming the same CBA points down the players throats and lock them out because they refuse to sign a CBA with no concessions. Furthermore, the NFL will be guilty of surface bargaining, which is the act of simply going through the motions of negotiating without any real intention of arriving at an agreement. Boulwarism and surface bargaining are clearly being displayed by the NFL and Richardson. There is a list of things considered by the NLRB when considering unfair labor charges....I won't bore you any longer.....

Keep cheering monkeys...keep cheering.

So in your illustrious example, what happens if a business can no longer sustain the model that it has utilized for less than a decade with disastrous results? Should the masses dictate that the owner capitulate to their demands and continue to run the industry into the ground?

Excellent question. Very easy answer though.

Open the books and show!

How do you negotiate profit splits if the costs are not shared between the negotiating parties? duh.

Brees says JR was not disrespectful:

...of course Florio has to frame it as Brees taking the high road even though Brees clearly says JR was not disrespectful.

They are negotiating revenue sharing, not profit sharing.

it's not surprising the sports national enquirer.. err, profootballtalk making a story out of this.

this became a non-story to me the second I found out their "source" is a kicker who wasn't even in the damn meeting(and won't name the source that was in the meeting).

[mav1234]

uh, lol.

so the players weren't even offended by it?

As is the case with many lawyers, you clearly know the law, but not business. Hence the question.

What you bring up is clear example of why lawyer beaurocrats in DC are killing this country. The notion of actual ownership is a lost concept on the "have-nots" when they set their eyes on something they want.

What's to negotiate?

You want star talent or scrubs that nobody will pay to see?

I don't really care if scabs play for a season or two. And I for one am much more likely to pay for a ticket to see the novelty of it.
