    So being that the owners have approved a new CBA. I thought I would see what you fellas thought about how the short off season is going to go. Being a Packer fan I am pretty curious to see what happens with Cullen Jenkins. Could be a crazy few weeks in the NFL

    AFAIK, the Players don't even have a copy of the Owner approved CBA. How can they vote on it if they have not seen it yet?

    Hopefully this doesn't drag on further, apparently the owners changed some things in the CBA they voted on - it's now not the same agreement as it was before and as stated above, the players have yet to even see it. This move by the owners may set it back some.

    NFL Network says this thing will be over today, which is great for my hometown where the Chiefs have training camp. This free agency period is going to be awesome to play out.

    Yeah the free agency will be pretty crazy to see play out. There's a few key guys on the Colts we need to retain.

    I've heard rumors of lifetime health insurance for players who play this year, in which case a Favre come back may not be just something to laugh at.

    Something tells me that Favre's insurance premiums is not something he's worried about financially. He did make about $12 million + last year.

    I wouldn't want to pay his premiums if I made 12 mil. Lifetime!
