One down, one to go! The NFL lockout is almost over and the return of NFL football is nearly complete!
NFL owners have voted unanimously 31-0 (Raiders abstained) in favor of the new collective bargaining agreement and settling of the Brady v. NFL anti-trust lawsuit. Yeah, baby!
All that's left is for the players to approve, which I'm sure will happen. They have a conference call scheduled for 8 p.m. EST.
Roger Goodell is expected to speak with the media very shortly.
