Re: Terms of the deal ratified by owners
RaidersoftheLostArk is declaring that Al Davis is an owner for the players and refused to be involved with the vote, because he knew that it was a power play by the owners to sneak in information, making the deal far more one-sided.

Re: Terms of the deal ratified by owners
ER--
I checked back on some of R-ark's posts in a couple of related threads, and he sounds as if he's going off the deep end with "the deal is PROBABLY bad because of the owners" and "Davis is the only good guy owner" kind of stuff. I never cease to be amazed that many fans jump to conclusions based on suppositions, opinions and less than half-truths about this stuff. From what I'm reading here and there, the 7 year opt out issue is more the "fault" of the players side trying to pull a fast one, or power play. I think it was Ravenswintitle who posted a PFT link that offers a great explanation as to why the 10 year deal is actually a better option for both sides. I'll see if I can find it.
