Update on NFL Lockout: Taking a Break


The NFL and the NFLPA have decided to take a break from labor negotiations this Friday. They met for a couple of hours Friday morning after a 15 hour negotiating session the night before. DeMaurice Smith, head of the players association didn't give us a very good update on the whole siutation:

"We'll continue to meet next week, and the goal is to get a deal done," Smith said on his way out.

Oh really DeMaurice, I couldn't have seen that one coming. Of course you'll meet next week to negotiate, you do that every week.

According to sources, the revenue split is still a major issue for both sides. In order for a deal to get done and for there to be games next season, they will have to decide on a revenue split.
