Interesting Angle By the NFLPA

Brandon428 · 05-04-2012, 11:05 AM

This is by far the CRAZIEST off season EVER! Great news though! Looks like even if “bounty gate” were true there’s nothing Goodell can do about it!

Don't believe so. They're not part of the players union.

Thats what I thought.

I really wish we could get SP back!

Well Sean is a "former player" so would he fall under that umbrella?

I honestly do not think so as they are not part of the NFLPA or the CBA.

The coaches have a separate Union and contract.

Actually they don't have a union which is one of the reasons why ML and SP had to just accept their punishments. They don't have a union to fight for their best interests.

From what I read the coaches union is pretty tightly woven with the NFLPA, but think there is a suit overe control.

The NFLCA was using NLFPA office space and believe a suit was made by the NFLPA against the NFLCA. It appears there is also some question about who controls the NFLCA.

NFLPA sues coaches' union in DC court - ESPN

No matter what why didn't we hear anything about the NFLCA during the issues with SP, JV - if they were involved in teh NFLCA. ML wouldn't be covered by NFLPA due to his positioin.

There is another thread about this but my reply goes something like this:

Here is a 81tch of an angle for you.

What "if" one shred of evidence shows that "things" took place between August 4th 2011 and now. There is a whole entire season in there.

Its back on again..... With a twist.

Fujita gets no punishment, went to browns after 2009 season
Hargrove walks also. He signed with the Seahawks on Sep 9 2011

Smith and Vilma.... Still have to fight.
