If I am the NFL's attorney I advise them to do exactly what they are doing, wait until the Judge makes an unequivocal statement, then slowly and incrementally comply. Drag your feet but keep moving forward, then plead the "gosh jeepers" defense to the Judge: "Gosh Geepers judge, we're trying to comply, but we want to make sure whatever we do is legal." All the while prepping and doing all you can to expedite the appeal of Nelson's order.
exactly, I don't even begin to know the legalities involved in all this, but how the league can be told on one hand, you must open, but on the other say, any rules will be subject to anti-trust threats. I just don't get it.
