    I know he was voted one of the top 5 dirtiest players in the NFL. I guess that's a form of respect.

    Owners have the right to void the contract. That is NOT breaking the contract. Holding out IS breaking the contract.

    Do you not understand this?

    Holding out is as legitimate as owners voiding contracts. The player pays a penalty, but it is completely within the rules.

    My original point stands. The NFLPA is a weak union for the players, since they agreed to allow contracts to not be guaranteed in the first place.

    well I agree with that, except holding out is breaking the contract. Not going to OTAs is within the rules.

    Hell the NFLPA disbanded in the 90s because it was the best option they had after the owners had schooled them so badly. Below is a read about the last players strike

    Haha. That was pretty good. Especially not allowing the players to return right away after it ended just so they lost another game check. Really stuck it to them. Seems to me the players wouldn't want a strike if it were anything like before.

    Do I really need to present examples of this? It happens en masse every season.

    There are no examples. He's merely playing with the wording.
