      Mostly the owners, but the players aren't completely angels.

          Players, but I would have picked both.

          Having said that, getting 59.6% of all shared revenue is quite high.

          Also a point I think is lost is the owners own the business. The players are the employees. It's not like other industries, but they are still employer/employee.

                        To me it's 55-45 owners' fault because they're trying to take the players' share that they had to agreed to a few years ago.

                          not much to debate. Mike Francesa is usually to blame for anything bad in the world

                            right but, the career of an nfl player is unlike any other profession...


                            an owner can own and profit forever

                            a player has what? an average of 3 years to make money?


                            hence why your analogy doesn't hold
