One source with intimate knowledge of the discussions tells me negotiations are 80-85 percent complete. They've made such fast progress, I'm told, it's catching many of the principals by surprise. Some are now canceling vacations, believing an agreement will be reached within a matter of days.

Re: Source: NFL deal 80-85 percent done
Basically, it seems, we continue to move solidly into that threshold of a season will be played, not if one will be played. Again, barring the knucklehead factor.
And, what evidence is there that would lead us to default to the position that there won't be stupidity, ego and legal gobbledygook screwing this up?
I have no faith in either side at this point.

Re: Source: NFL deal 80-85 percent done
i admit, i'm surprised. i didn't think either side had it in them, but from what i hear this mess could be over shortly.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.
