95. The scab NFL.....
"Remember when the NFL *did* all stay together against the owner's lock out? Remember how they went crawling back to the owners PLEADING for their jobs back.....don't remember that? Oh that's right because it went exactly the other way."

You have an interesting memory. The players went on strike for free agency, pension benefits etc. The strike ended with no new agreement. Real free agency (not the plan B BS) didn't come until 1993.

In other words the players lost.
