Actually, I can see one being done by then IF the NFLPA, and especially DeMaurice Smith, realize they have no chance of winning the appeal. He insists on acting smug without realizing that the wording in the papers on the stay almost flat out says the judges side with the league. The NFL knows it and wants to do a "fair" deal, the PA now needs to know this before they lose big time.
So basically, if the NFLPA realizes that if they wait until they lose on appeal that they'll have to accept almost whatever the NFL offers, they can take the time between now and then to work out a deal that both sides will actually like.
But I get the feeling Smith is going to continue to go the "cocky" route and keep trying to swing his dick around. I side with the PA, but Smith is a total fuckhead
