They should sell tickets to Mara's deposition.[/quote]

Unfortunately, there will be no tickets. I think this also spells the end of any hope for cap relief next year. I haven't read the decision, but it appears Judge Doty ruled that the players waiver encompassed any violations that occurred during the cap free year.

So does this mean there is ,or isn't a Lawsuit?

Re: NFLPA Files Collusion Lawsuit Against NFL, Owners
 

The suit is dismissed, subject to appeal to the appropriate Federal Circuit Court (Not sure which circuit it is). So, unless it is appealed and reversed, the NFLPA has no lawsuit.

The appeal would be only on whether J. Doty correctly applied the law. In that it is a Motion to Dismiss, the only issue was did the NFLPA allege facts which gave rise to an actionable claim. Apparently, due to the waiver they did not.

Be nice if Congress would get involved checking into unfair bargening practices.
