Sal Paol: Negotiations to Continue Through Tonight, Breakthrough Progress Made

[Proudiddy]

Sal Paolantonio was just on SportsCenter with "breaking news," said the owners are prepared to make a new proposal tonight. Said JR, Mara, Rooney are all there. Goodell left for a short break and will be back tonight to continue to help with the negotiations.

Said Carl Eller, who is the president of the retired players association (I think), said after the discussions held today that there has been a breakthrough with the owners, and progress is now being made on both sides.

Best report I've heard since this stuff started, as vague as it is...

Given the stay news that just came out, this is very interesting. Hopefully something comes of it and we can have TC.

What in the hell could Goodell be possibly doing that takes him away from a SERIOUS situation?

[Proudiddy]

Yeah, I was thinking that maybe the stay made both sides realize it's time to get something done, NOW.

Stay will give owners ability to pwn players paychecks.

I wouldn't be surprised if this thing is over soon.

Kind of like when you're taking a dump and you relax between pushes.

I feel the sameway.. This is what adam and Mort are saying...

mortreport Court was about leverage; it now swings in owners favor but many owners are nervous & want a deal done. Players now have to get a deal done 6 minutes ago

Adam_Schefter Owners now have the leverage. This is a complete win for the owners. Players are in trouble, based on judge's words in this ruling. 20 minutes ago

mortreport Mediation resumed today in Minn-St. Paul; Sal Palaotonio just updated that owners are prepared to present new proposal, per judge request 8 minutes ago

Goodell is such a tooljob
