    I just can't imagine that a majority of players would not have excepted the last offer!

    to borrow a phrase...Misters Kessler and Hunter have made themselves into plantation owners, deciding that their folks don't have the savvy to understand how good or bad a deal is, and will just make decisions for them that they don't need to be a part of.

    Sure seems that way. It also seems to me, if they thought the players agreed with them, they would tout that as a position of strength. They don't.

    Great tweets from Ken Berger

    KBergCBS Ken Berger
    Boies believes he's caught Stern in a gotchya moment when Stern said last Thursday, "The negotiations have ended." I recall that exchange.

    Right after Stern said that, Silver jumped in and said, "The negotiations on this proposal have ended." Could be important distinction.


    Very astute pick up on Berger's part. At least I think it is
