The NFL Owners and the Players Union entered a lockout, despite weeks and weeks of meetings. This is the first work stoppage in the Nfl since 1987. Its rather unfortunate, because of the popularity that the sport brings, and potentially no football in the 2011-2012 season. The leagues most famous players Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees are suing NFL owners in an attempt to possibly get an agreement done. There are many topics that are talked about in those meetings, how will the league divide 9 billion dollars, a proposed 18 game schedule, and health care benfits for retired players. All in All, it is a very difficult process for both sides to agree on.
