Well, this could all be in vain...  That is, unless the teams & players association can come to terms on a new CBA.  One of the comments in this story (http://cbs.sportsline.com/nfl/story/9280910) worries me somewhat:

"The overwhelming majority of players who will be released would've been released even if there had been an extension," said agent Mike Sullivan. "Where there is a difference is that there won't be the money for a lot of them to go back to work. That room used to be created by restructuring contracts to create additional cap room, but you can't do that under the new rules."

Sullivan believes the real impact of a stalemate wouldn't be felt until 2007, when the league would enter into an uncapped year where free agents don't become unrestricted until after their sixth seasons -- as opposed to after their fourth years under the present deal.

"You could find massive holdouts of the fourth-and-fifth-year players," he said, "which would disrupt the system."

Could you imagine the chaos if the NFL fell apart?  Lol the beer industry alone would be in ruin :))!  I mean, just look at hockey; they've had to resort to having their games broadcast on the Outdoor Life Network (not that there's anything wrong with OLN).

Lol just goes to show that ignorance, at least in their case, truly is bliss >:D.  But of course, let's not forget the greed factor.  Then you throw in the agent factor, and you have a recipe for a bloody mess :))

FYI...Dan Marino got like a low 13 on the Wonderlic. It shows nothing, IMO, just like any standardized test it can be interpreted many ways.

By the way, in case anyone's still interested in the arbitration, here's the latest not-news:
