That is a conclusion by a group of arbitrators that we jointly pick.
This is not De Smith's language.
This is not the union's language.
This is not the NFL's language.
This is a conclusion by the three-judge panel.
ruling consistently with the arbitrator who first heard the case.
Even though he ruled that there was no proof of harm, what the arbitrator ruled and what this three-judge panel ruled was that there was a deliberate encouragement to engage in collusions.
And here's the most important thing.
It doesn't say when it started.
You know, the next move by, you know, my brain would be we, I would have asked our lawyers based on this, do we have enough evidence to file a claim against the NFL dating back to
to when Kirk Cousins got his fully guaranteed contract.
Well, 100%, because now we know that basically the reaction to Deshaun Watson's contract is all of this.
And you say to yourself, I want to know what their reaction was to the Kirk Cousins contract when the owners knew...
That at least four to five first ballot Hall of Famer quarterbacks were going to have renegotiations of their contracts within 18 to 24 months of Kirk Cousins breaking the glass ceiling of no guaranteed contracts in the National Football League.
No, and so I would say to myself—
The owners probably are going to do whatever they can to make sure that Tom Brady doesn't get a fully guaranteed contract, that Aaron Rodgers doesn't get a fully guaranteed contract.
And I'm going to sit there and say, you know what?
If they reacted this way... By the way, part of that reaction was apparently...
Two things happened in the Lamar Jackson case that, one, raises your ire about cheating, but also, you know, this history of collusion.
He is the most electric quarterback in the National Football League.
