Packergeek: “Owners and Players reach agreement”

by

How do I know this? Well, I don’t. I actually just said this to myself and then decided to use this quote for the post title. I have no inside sources and I haven’t read anything compelling to lead me to believe this. I am, however, intent on spreading another rumor. While I do have a hunch that something productive may have actually happened over the last 3 days – and that a real settlement isn’t far away, the bigger reason I am posting this is to start a massive rumor so that it puts pressure on both the players and owners if a deal hasn’t been reached.

Really, this is getting ridiculous.

    I hope your hunch is correct. I’m beginning to have my doubts though.

    The Milwaukee Mustangs are home June 11th against Kansas City. Tickets are still available.

    How does the Owners vs players affect the Packers who has many thousands of owners? I never hear about this in the media.
    Packers don’t have a one overall lord who is the owner. So how does this affect the Packers? DO each of the 10s of thousands of stock holders get a say in the owner/player dispute? How does this work with the Packers?

    Did your hunch include a timeframe as to when this good news is going to occur? The reports that they are now making contingency plans for an 8 game season does not give me hope. I had the awesome good fortune of scoring tickets for the season opener against the Saints through the Brown County ticket lottery – I will not be a happy camper if the lockout messes that up!! Not to mention that my husband has taken to discussing the evaluation of collegiate baseball playing surfaces – yes, collegiate baseball playing surfaces. Can we PLEASE get back to football!?!?

    good question robert. not sure exactly how to answer except to say that the packers (executive board etc) are united with the league/other owners on this one.

    TGinGB – hilarious. the topic of collegiate baseball playing surfaces is an absolutely horrible sports-discussion topic. I’m still optimistic – give it a few more weeks. If nothing substantive happens by the end of June – I’ll have to brew up a more aggressive campaign of lies and rumors against both sides.
