The practice squads got a little bit longer.
And now you got to the space where you see veterans can be on the practice squad instead of guys who are within three years of accrued years in the NFL.
The 17th game, while still having inequity in terms of the revenue share.
I mean, the owners, they'll sign up for that every single time.
Oh, we got to throw you crumbs?
And we still get to keep our billions?
And they timed it up right.
So that 17th game, being inserted into the schedule, was lining up with new TV contracts with ESPN and NBC and Amazon, everyone you see.
Like, throwing cash is so understated.
Like, it's not throwing cash, like billions of dollars is going to the NFL through these TV deals.
Like, it's funny, I had a friend, you know, one of these, you know, Shador Sanders stands, he was arguing, he's like, oh, you know, he was like, oh, you know, like the Browns, like they took Shador because they need the jersey sales.
I'm like, dude, Shador could have the number one selling jersey in the NFL and Jimmy Haslam didn't care about him.
That's a drop of a drop of a drop in the bucket for like where the money is actually coming from.
And that's the TV deal.
So to get that 17th game is huge.
And this term is for 10 years again.
So in 2030, they can look at
renegotiating and trying to figure it out.
But in the meantime, to even call this a union is so far away from how it's actually functioning.
