Dbag smith still talking crap

[MHS831]

I have to say, he's a pretty good lawyer.

He is no better a lawyer than Roger is a commissioner. When this is over, then judge him.

[MHS831]

"Smith told players in meetings on Friday that his new salary will be $0."

I see. He is working on commission.

You're so misguided it's laughable. To quote myself,

People need to demonize someone, that way it makes sense to them. They want the issue to be easy. If they can turn one side, or even a single person, into the 'bad guy' they create a perfect outlet for their frustrations over the issue.

Exhibit A:

Now the bastard players and that fug Dbag Smith can get bent. Take the new deal offered and get back to work.

'Bastard players' , 'Dbag Smith', and a belittling comment that they need to 'get back to work.'

It's a joke. The whole thing is a myriad of issues, problems, and greed, on both sides, yet for simpletons it's boiled down to ''fuging Dbag Smith and the basterd playerz fawlt!11!!!''

Problem is, you're never going to convince idiots to take a step back and try to see other people's perspective. So, might as well join them...

FUG T-BAGIN DBAG SMITH AND THE PLAYERZS WHO R LAZY AND STUPID, OWNERZ TOOK ALL THE RISK SO THEY SHLD HAVES THE MONEY!!!!1111

I was listened to NFl Sirius today and they mentioned several points of interest brought up by their myriad of guests.

First off if the players win the damages from Dody's court which could be $750,000,000 and they short track the appeal, if the owners have to pay that this year it would allow the players to hold out for a long time. Thoughts are the players could win it.

Secondly, all accounts are that Smith is doing exactly what the players want. Although Upshaw got them the best deal in their history, players always felt that he was in bed with the owners. They like that Smith is emotional and essentially says "up yours" to the owners. They like this win at all costs mentality. Remember these players aren't businessmen, they are guys who all their life have been taught to be aggressive and win at the cost of other's losing. They don't want compromise they want to win.

Smith appeals to that sense and is doing exactly what they want him to do.

While I don't agree with him, I can see how the players feel and why things appear less optimistic then they were even a few days ago. That kind of rhetoric hardly seems conducive to working out a deal.

I see both sides. I think the owners initial offer was so out of whack it set a bad tone for all future negotiations. However negotiating through the media is rarely helpful on the players side. That being said, I hope something long term can be worked out so that we won't have to go through this again in 5 years.

de smith plans still works the but without an end to the lock out the players dont have the funds to see this battle to the end.....this entire battle all comes down to june 3.

[Lords0fPain]

Even from the new york slimes:

"The two judges’ language also gave a strong indication that the owners have a good chance to win the appeal, which would keep the lockout in place and put pressure on players, who have not received bonuses and would not receive paychecks if games are missed."

"The Eighth Circuit said it had “considerable doubt” about how United States District Judge Susan Richard Nelson interpreted the Norris-La Guardia Act, which says that a federal court cannot issue an injunction in a case involving or growing out of a labor dispute."

new york slimes why in the world did you type that

lol...typically a very liberal paper that picks and chooses the "news" and cherry picks the information it uses. Don't like any "news" organization (liberal or conservative) that does things like that....give the all facts and let the people decide...

[Fiz]

the new york times is the most neo-liberal, interventionist rag in This Gay Country and the only people that think otherwise are those that don't read it

also new york slimes is something a retarded gay baby would say

[Fiz]

NYT employed a writer that was planting false stories created by the Bush administration BOY WHAT A LIBERAL NEWSPAPER

[Fiz]

like thomas friedman actively calls for the bombing of civilians and this is a liberal paper?
