Again, my opinion doesn't really matter. What is, is and that's not going to change. But just for grins, I think it would be better eventually for the NFL. If a few teams have to go belly up, so be it. Players should be paid what they are worth on the free market and should be able to negotiate their salaries any time they see fit. Owners don't want to pay? Then a player should be able to move on and go where someone else is willing to pay him what the market will bear. If I'm a sixteen year old with a body of a 25 year old and can play with the big boys, why would I waste my time getting an education or risk getting injured in college when I can go and make millions? Go for it. Who is anybody to say that individual should not be able to make his own decisions? And if he's a legal minor, if it's ok with his parents, then go for it! Revenue sharing is socialism. If you can't get enough people inside your stadium to pay the bills, you should fail and be replaced by an owner that can get it done. It's not equitable to force successful teams who work hard to be successful to give the mediocre teams some of their hard-earned money.

What I think about the way the NFL does its business, whether I agree with it or not doesn't mean crap. It won't affect what they do one bit. And it's unknown and presumptive to assume to know what would happen to the NFL if it didn't do what it is now doing. I just stated my opinion as a staunch opponent of socialism who isn't a flag-bearer for the things mentioned by another poster, which contradicts his thesis.

Liberals today have bastardized Classical Liberalism* such that not only do they not come close to it but they are divorced from it practically speaking. *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_liberalism *http://www.classical-liberal.com/

Not when they act like liberals and just call names.

last word neener, neener, neener

LOL! This very post reeks of insults. Yeah right, you are not here to engage in an insult contest. You are not credible. What a joke! hahahaha

Editing is what an edit button is for. I didn't know I needed your permission to add to my posts. You apparently forgot the board rules when you made a personal attack calling me a ****. That's ok. I can handle childish name-calling. Why do you stalk my posts? Are you a stalker in real life? What was your question?

opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has one takes one to know one neener,neener, neener

It is not obvious to whom you were responding. Try using the quote button next time. I thought you were responding to another post. This post above was directed to me correct?

You got busted and now you are doing the same thing you so sanctimoniously criticize others for doing - name calling. LOL!

Again, I like my version better. I only say that because it is obvious that you are shadowing my posts and asking the same questions that I ask in an attempt to present my post in the way that you think is preferable to the way I posted it using ridicule and sarcasm. I am not swayed in any way to agree with your condescending opinion. But feel free to shadow my posts and re-ask my questions and make the identical points I'm making in your "preferred" manner. Your method is so superior to mine. What would I do without your omniscient tutelage?

I like my version better. Ridicule and sarcasm rocks!

Not at all. I just didn't see any connection to the topic in your comment. Please tell us what you meant by your attempt at humor.

Liberals always try and play the race card yet often they are the true racists: http://open.salon.com/blog/ts/2009/09/19/racism_as_owned_by_white_liberals

Wrong thread Old Bear. I think.........

I said: "Looks like"...... and "we shall see." I am not irrationally exuberant about Kelly. But I do like what I see so far.

It's great to see a socialist defend socialism in one breath and try and convince everyone that 0bama is not a socialist in another breath. Liberals are very confused and liberalism is a mental disorder. LOL!

Let's take a look at the Bush actual deficit vs the Obama (and CBO) projected deficits. These are his numbers and he did not inherit them from Bush: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/graphic/2009/03/21/GR2009032100104.html LOL! Facts are stubborn things.

I hope so! Looks like the Kelly machine is starting to pay dividends already. We shall see...........

Now that's one mother trucker!!!
