Old Man Posted March 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 New CBA passed with a 51% majority. 17 game season, no substance abuse suspensions, more profit sharing for players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hopcroft Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 Yes, but is it a good deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted March 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I'm not sure of all the terms, but I doubt there's enough in there to make up for the extra game. Forgot to add that playoffs are going to 14 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hopcroft Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 One of the significant parts of the agreement is that THC (one of the "active ingredients in marijuana -- they believe THC is the substance that gets you high) will no longer be considered worth suspending a player for. A lot of players are ganja users -- it has analgesic properties that many players find desirable once they've been whacked around for ten to fourteen weeks. Plus it's legal in a growing number of states, many of which host NFL teams. It's still illegal under Federal law, but enforcing that has gotten tricky. So the NFL has taken a step back from its former policy. They will still test for harder drugs like campaign, and for performance enhancers whatever form they take. And the are actually testing for THC -- they just can;t take away game checks over it anymore. I don't know whether fines are permitted either.

Starlord Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Houston Texans are sending star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and a fourth-round pick to Arizona for David Johnson, a second-round pick and a fourth-round pick. Houston...I'm confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
