Colts players revolt on Commish (must read)

Tip to BBS, the IBJ has a stunning article about how the Colts greeted Goodell.

Goodell might have been expecting a friendly exchange when he swooped into Indianapolis for the last of several training camp visits in August. But several players swore at Goodell angrily. Peyton Manning, sources said, became upset with the treatment toward the commissioner and Colts center Jeff Saturday, an executive member of the players’ negotiating team, abruptly concluded the meeting as emotions—and tempers—flared.

If an agreement doesn’t get done, owners, who are asking players to take a pay cut, are promising to lock out the players.
