What is this, episode 6345 of the lockout series now? Here’s the latest if you dare be interested.
The important quote here is “Training camps are scheduled to open in just over three weeks with the Hall of Fame game on Aug. 7.”
The question is will a deal be in place for these things to happen, and will anything slated to happen after that be affected? We’re coming dangerously close to losing what’s now part of the transition between “offseason” and “pre-season”. To this point, a free agency window is essentially all we’ve lost, and that time can be made up during training camp. If training camp starts to get lost, then we’ll really be in trouble. That’s where real money will start to be lost. Then games start to happen, and that’s where the NFL gets a severe blow to their bottom line. Of course, the minute real money gets lost, the more the chances a deal will get done more swiftly.
