Can anyone give a GOOD answer to this. What is the difference between a players' association and a players' union? The association is now advising players to stay away from the draft. Since the NFL argues the de-certification is a sham. I am curious what specific actions the NFLPA could take that would constitute acting as a union? And, what allowances are there when comparing a Union's actions to a Trade Associations with regards to common law practices.

How can a non-union order non-union members (which rookies aren't until after they are drafted, even in a CBA environment) not to attend a specific event. And why would you ruin these players first moment in the sun -so to say...
