Yeah either way it's speaks to the owners view of them and the players. That's why the players were mad.

How is it re the EPL or other levels of (your) football?

In the NBA and somewhat in MLB the players are partners in the enterprise - both players and owners trying to grow the game, etc. In the NFL it's always been "We're the owners and you'll do what we tell you." No guaranteed contracts, restrictions that do not allow you to reach the market and get fair market value, etc.

Which is why the next contract negotiations could get real ugly unless owners come to their senses. At least the Jaguars seem to have an owner that gets it.

The sun's not yellow, it's chicken.
