Blue Train Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 .........guessing that 'godel'(sic) had his wings clipped. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: What I don't get about the deal is it's basically something they could have settled on a long time ago. While both sides finally comprised on all the main issues....I think the NFL won on being able to hire new refs and get rid of bad ones. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 So Baltimore won't have any excuses when we beat that ass tonight!!! Quote
Blue Train Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) So Baltimore won't have any excuses when we beat that ass tonight!!! There is the rusty/not in shape ref excuse. Edited September 27, 2012 by Blue Train Quote
Matthew Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 So Baltimore won't have any excuses when we beat that ass tonight!!! I was wondering if you had the Browns tonight.... Quote
Tim McG Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) So much for trying to break the union. Apparently, union workers do a better job than scabs. Who knew? The NFL needs to get its collective head examined after this fiasco. Idiots. Edited September 27, 2012 by GoodSpeak Quote
Blue Train Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) I don't think you realize in in the long term the NFL actually won with being able to get rid of the bad referees, which was really the main sticking point for the refs...and can put new refs on a 401(k) instead of the excellent package they current ones have....and the "union" rolled over for a bit more money and those who already are refs can keep their current benefits. Those in the future won't get anything close to the same now. What NFL will have to pay more in salary they more than make up on the future benefits of new refs. The "Union" could have really given it to the NFL....especially since none of them were really unemployed, or hurting. They had the NFL by the jugular after the Monday Night Game....they rolled over on some current refs and the future refs. I still have to laugh at people calling them "Union Workers" or uses "Scabs" to the others over people who are now going to average $173,000 for their second job as if they're coal miners and real "Union Workers". It's somewhat along the lines of being able to fire incompetent tenured teachers...and you don't have to give the new teachers the same benefits. Yeah, the "Union" won this.

alocispepraluger102 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 standard union negotiations--take care of yourself and f--k the new guys. works every time. :crazy: Quote

There isn't any word on what amount or percentage can be fired. Like I said before they basically could have had this deal a long time ago but rolled over when they had the NFL by the jugular after this weekends games and especially MNF game. It really makes no sense from a "union" point of view. The NFL looked bad (but you no one will remember it by the end of the year, if not in a few years.) but really won....just like they did against the players.

alocispepraluger102 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) not a very interesting schedule this week. 49ers at jets(early game) and the sunday(nyg-eagles) and monday(bears-cowboys) night games look pretty good. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: nfl bye weeks have started..........(Indianapolis, Pittsburgh) Edited September 30, 2012 by alocispepraluger102 Quote
jlhoots Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 G.B 28 - N.O. 27. Whew!! Not that the officiating was that good. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted October 2, 2012 Report Posted October 2, 2012 Nice game Romo 5 ints / 1 fumble Did Romo and Cutler switch bodies? Quote
Matthew Posted October 2, 2012 Report Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) Why in the world are either of the Ryan's taken seriously as coaches? The Jets look totally unprepared, and the Dallas defense was a joke last night. Oh well, Rob just looks so firery,so he must be a great coach! Edited October 2, 2012 by Matthew Quote
slide_advantage_redoux Posted October 2, 2012 Report Posted October 2, 2012 Kind of sums it up in Dallas Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) may i suggest that you may need another ryan as coach and one less jerry. you've got the tent; might as well have a circus. Edited October 3, 2012 by alocispepraluger102 Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 Speaking as someone who followed the Falcons for years, I can safely say that less jerry is always a good idea. Quote
