Message: [QUOTE="Oakland, post: 1497625, member: 590"] According to the article, "Judges Sonia Sotomayor, Robert D. Sack and Lewis A. Kaplan backed the NFL's contention that its draft-eligibility rule should be exempt from antitrust scrutiny because it resulted from collective bargaining between the league and the players' union." So if the Longshoremen's Union and the Port Authorities agree that no dock worker can be hired until they are 3, 10, 20 yrs? out of HS, these judges would agree with that? Don't understand that ruling. Back to the OP, if I was LF I would seriously consider sitting out. His appeal can't get much higher and the NFL won't forget him in one year. Heck, there is a good possibly that his numbers won't be as good next season. [/QUOTE]
