The problem with the bolded section is seen in the very last thing Stern says in the ESPN interview I have linked in post 1579:
There is no one to negotiate with now (or as soon as the players follow through on threat). This goes to the courts to be resolved. The league is not budging. The players are going to lose '11-12 season and quite possibly much more with the very real possibility they come back to 47% (or less!) of BRI and a flex cap.
I am pro-owner because my wants as a fan align with theirs as owners but what the players are looking at doing is ridiculous.
As Stern said, Kessler is taking the same argument which he LOST with the NFL on appeal. The players are nuts.
I do hope you are right and it leads to a negotiation in the next day or two before the players dissolve the union because, if not, this goes to the lawyers and what is a bad situation will only get much worse.
