I smell something, but not sure if it's football.

It doesn’t have a football leathery smell. Seems more like sweaty jockstrap. Or, it could be the smell of Jerry Richardson finally unclenching the cheeks of his fat ass. Whatever it is, I’ll wait until the CBA ink is dry before getting my hopes up.

This break … Which NFL folks were telling people would be 10 minutes … Is now at 45 minutes or so.

I'm going to use this thread to post updates.

NFL could open facilities as early as Friday so players can use them to discuss issue and sign union cards needed for recertification.

Adam Schefter
De Smith and Roger Goodell have been on phone the past hour, trying to work out a way to lift lockout if both sides approve deal tonight.

Player rep conference call still set for 8, but could be pushed back ostensibly, with settlement talks ongoing and owner’s vote on hold

Looks like owners will approve deal with condition that NFLPA re-certify within a short period of time. Has to be days, not weeks. #nfl

Talk now is the 2 sides may vote at the same time. League would give players a set number of days to re-form as a union.
