On April 29th, the lockout that was lifted just 12 hours before was reinstated. Court ordered negotiations will resume May 16th. The on again off again lockout is confusing to players who aren't sure if they will have a job come fall.
Frank Walker, corner for the Minnesota Vikings tweeted on Thursday, "Does anyone know whether or not imma be playing with the Vikes this year if so let me know. Please."
Arrests and legal troubles is at an all time high among players. Brandon Marshall, and Albert Haynesworth are among a few of the players who have had legal woes since the lockout ensued. Owners and players are trying to find a way to divide up over $9 billion dollars in revenue. However, the majority of NFL players are not millionaires, while almost all of the owners are millionaires or billionaires. It seems reaching an agreement should be a lot easier considering.
