We’re running out of time. I’m at my bottom line. I have nowhere else to go. I’ve said for years that the only thing that would prevent us from getting a deal was if one...

And we’re running out of time. There’s no progress, there’s nothing to report. The positions are still the same.

We’re still trying to get our arms around it [the issue of testing]. There’s no doubt we believe it should be tested for. And there’s no doubt we believe it should be on the banned...

The revenue sharing piece is what’s keeping this piece from getting done.

San Antonio has expressed interest in getting an NFL team, going back to ’93 or ’95,

The price of poker will go up. We can not stay in the place where we are now.

This agreement is not about one side winning or losing.

We’d like to see it. We all understand that’s a big market. We all understand that’s the second-largest market and we should be in that market. And as we go into the TV negotiations [the...

I won’t do it, though, without revenue sharing.

Paul brought up comments that John made after the game. I guarantee you, that’s not helping my case.

Wellington Mara was a true pioneer who understood what it took to make the National Football League great. History will show that his vision, integrity and willingness to share with small-market clubs paved the way...

Our number has to start with a six.

But it’s still early. Look at what’s happening in Jacksonville. The market was there early. They sold a lot of tickets. But they haven’t sustained it. Now they’re roping off seats in order to avoid...

As they say, the clock is ticking and at least they realize that. Basically, though, we’re at the same point.

We are pleased that this process has finally concluded with an agreement. This agreement is not about one side winning and losing. Ultimately, it is about what is best for the players, the owners and...

He said that I had to stay on this. He was very adamant about his position on it. We’re all going to be at the services, but we cannot forget the principles and integrity and...

I’m going to tell the agents to do deals as if there is no salary cap in 2007 if we don’t have a deal by Friday. But under no circumstance will I move back the...

We’re deadlocked. There’s nowhere to go. There’s no reason to continue meeting. We’re too far apart on our economics, and too far apart on revenue sharing, and we’ll go to the uncapped year. There won’t...

He meant as much to us off the field as much as on it, … He had his name on the lawsuit and he didn’t get one penny. That’s just the type of guy he...

We jointly agreed to move the deadline because we owe it to the people we represent. There are no promises from either side.

Whatever happens in this game will not matter after Week 17. If the site was switched late in the season, I’d have a problem with it. But this is early in the season.

Everyone is really concerned we’re getting down to that final deadline. We will do whatever it takes to protect the rights of the players.

Additional thanks go to my old boss, Al Davis, for being the first to rise, as he did in 1993, in support of Paul (Tagliabue) and an agreement.

It would be just like baseball. It would have been very easy for him to say, ‘I have the largest market and I don’t want to share.’ Which is what we have going on right...

There is no chance free agency will be delayed.

It’s absolutely crazy. We’re like the gang that can’t shoot straight. I would never have agreed to move the deadline unless they acceded to my financial conditions. I want to go to bed, too. But...

He meant as much to us off the field as on it. He had his name on the lawsuit (for free agency) and didn’t get one penny. That’s the type of guy he is. His...

I need a number that starts with a 6. I said it at the beginning and I’ve said it all the way through.

We don’t want to leave it with them, … They’ve taken the position that revenue sharing is none of our business. The hell it isn’t.

We’re further apart now than when we started. For anyone to believe that we’re close is just not reality.

Wellington Mara would be both pleased and proud today.

I know they expect us to appeal and we will appeal,

March 3 will be the beginning of a new league year and we are just not there yet. I’m taking the position now that it won’t get done.

On behalf of the players, the NFLPA staff and the negotiating team, we are pleased that this process has finally concluded with an agreement. This agreement is not about one side winning or losing. Ultimately,...

I think both sides better get prepared where there is no deal, … I told our staff Monday that’s what we have to communicate to the players — what direction we’re going — and right...

I guess we could meet if they want to. All I know is they got up and said they had to have a conference and the meeting was ended.

There’s no fear that there’s a wider problem. The report has been completed. We will be, at some point, giving it to Congress. We’re satisfied with the results of it. The players that were named...

We have a group of high-revenue clubs and they’re making a lot of money off this system. It’s also held down their payroll. If you’re not sharing your fair share with the players, I have...

The players have worked very hard to make this game the best in the world. The players are committed to ensuring that the game of football remains on the field and not in the courtroom.
