I agree with what you're saying. but i think that the players whose livelihoods depend on those weekly checks during the season were the ones who swayed them from continuing to fight it. They were getting restless and I think the NFLPA panicked because they didn't want a lot of players turning on the union for dragging it out....but I agree with you tho.....they should have fought harder for it... the owners would have cracked believe me....they want to make their money just as much if not more than the players do.
