NFL, NFLPA Labor Latest: Revealings of NFL Financial Information Still a Hot Topic

As the negotiation wind down for Wednesday, the NFL and players union still have a disagreement regarding the financial data given to the NFLPA.

The NFLPA, according to DeMaurice Smith, was told by the international investment bank they hired that the data given to them is "utterly meaningless" when determining whether or not the players union should "write them an $800 million check" per year.

NFL lead negotiator Jeff Pash, as I stated in a previous post, said the information given to them is more detailed than the data given to the 32 NFL franchises.

So to summarize the argument in easily-understood language, the NFLPA is arguing that the information given to them is insufficient. However, the NFL is arguing that they gave the players union enough information.

Bottom line: there is less than 48 hours left in the current collective bargaining agreement. And the clock is ticking.
