The other 90% would get get their 20% increased game check like the other 16 weeks. Of course, as the story points out, those 10% can negotiate for more than the $250K.

Those "non-starters" make up that 90% would benefit directly by the proposed CBA.

So even millionaires are for socialism?

There is nothing about the NFL that approaches the definition of socialism. Thank God.

If one signed for $16mil per year and a 17th game is added, one would be looking for that $1mil game check for Game 17 and not agreeing to capped earnings...

Having a capped earning for redistribution is socialism by definition, if not in end-result practice and application...

We saw socialism with the bank bailouts and the auto bailouts; however, other businesses and individuals affected by storms, oil spills, not so much...

That player can still get his $1M game check. It simply has to be negotiated.

Renegotiate again? On a case by case basis? Well that's sounds like more corrupt socialism...

Well, guess we'll find out if the nuevo-millionaires will agree...
