NFL Lockout Update. The NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith are set to meet anytime this week in Minnesota. The meeting is agreed to held in the absence of the owners and players.
The reason for it was not made known but some believe that the concerned parties have moved on from big-picture negotiations and are starting to hammer away at the details with the lawyers.
Goodell is said to be heading down to the NFLPA's version of the rookie symposium and speaking to the players. Goodell and Smith apparently went on a plane together from Minnesota to Florida, which suggests they have a healthy relationship.
That's good news for not only this set of labor negotiations but for future ones as well. It's important that the two sides figure this lockout out and also set the stage for continued labor peace
