    They could build it with bricks from all of those collapsed buildings. You know, after they're done looking for dead people in the rubble.

    One aspect of the NFL thing that hasn't really been touched on, the owners really don't want something like this unifying players. The owners have been very adroit in keeping this thing from becoming an owners vs. players thing. Clearly - players won't be unified in a work action if only money is at play, they haven't before - something like this though? Which could tear locker rooms apart or unify them against ownership? Absolutely.

    Players will never do anything to risk the weekly paychecks of their too-short careers.

    I know the players association isn't very strong as unions go, but how easy or hard would it be for Jones to get rid of somebody for this reason?

    Depends on who it is ... as always in the NFL.

    Son, yer a Dallas Cowboy and a Cowboy approaches our country's national anthem the same way he approaches beating his woman - on his two feet with a strong posture and yer full attention!
