Beats me.

There are obviously things we don't know. Nobody at that proverbial table is stupid.

All I can guess (hope) is the owners are tired of the bullshit. That's all we can do is guess.

I'll pray for a total cut of all salary and a scab draft.

Maybe the owners are bluffing? Maybe they are seriously fed up? Time will tell.

But who do you think could last longer? Players or owners? Who would be bankrupt first if they owner folded up shop?
