Demaurice Smith did not hide the decision of collusion

The development of the most exciting summer came from the news that the American Football Association and the NFL players of the American Football Association have been hidden for more than five months, which includes 61 pages in the collusion complaint with regard to the full players ’contracts.

The American Football Association won, but the US Football Association won the discovery of an attempt to collude – along with convincing evidence of actual collusion and the right to resume the case. The Federation should have used the document as a basis for legal and political assault and public relations on the US Football Association.

The former CEO of NFLPA Lloyd Huil did not. Former NFLPA strategy president JC Tretter insists that he was excluded from developing the strategy to hide the ruling.

Earlier this week on #PFTPM to promote his new book, TURF Wars, the former CEO of NFLPA Demaurice Smith was asked about what he would have done if the collusion case that began during his term was resolved while he was working.

Smith said: “I always try to avoid speculation or put other people in a box based on what I will do, but, but you know, given that the board of directors, which manages and literally controls the entire National Football League, has urged the teams to avoid this, it was possible that there was a category of category, which you would have obtained, in fact, I knew – was based on this decision that the board of directors made, and it was certain that it was possible Anything in the ruling that I believed, or we thought was inconsistent with the law or does not contradict the facts. “

In other words, he had not concluded a secret deal with the league to keep the result with the same secrecy.

“You take the evidence that you have, and we had evidence that gave us the basis for providing it, and take the next step,” Smith said. “Once again, I know you know that while you were the CEO, there were always a few people who wanted to get rid of the description line that De Smith prefers from negotiating.” As you know, this was never true, but I was never ignorant – deliberately ignorant – not only the history of the union of this player, but the history of the union of each player was absolutely present.

“You don’t have to go away, but if you do not understand the role of Oscar Robertson and if you do not understand the role of John Makki, and if you do not understand the role or the importance of Bill Radovic, and if you definitely do not understand how important Kurt is a flood, I do not think about it, if you understand that. Date, you understand that you have a commitment to push it forward.

While Smith Hawal did not mention, the message is inevitable. It was not the history of the Federation. In any case, he lacked any essential understanding of the sports federation’s role in ensuring an appropriate balance between management and work.

For this reason, people should be interested in the current chaos within the union. If things are very far from balance, problems may arise. Even up to stop work aims to restore the right balance.

Regarding the state of collusion, the American Football Association has caught its hand in the jar of cookies. Hill chose to look in the other direction and the saying, mainly, “Enjoy the definition profiles.” This fact alone proves that Hill was not qualified for the job he occupied for more than two years.
