That's their chant. My response is to chill. More than anytime in recent memory, the NFL is at peace. They are close to a collective bargaining extension through the year 2006. The partners were so in line that they approved realignment in a one-hour vote.
Instant replay is set for the next three years.
Expansion is out for at least another decade. But as baseball learned, a league is only as good as its weakest franchise, and to punish the Raiders with millions in fines and ownership suspensions would be making a business venture personal. Those things should be reserved for the field. Owners voted into their bylaws that any owner who sues the league and loses should pay the legal fees. No doubt, the 31 owners should pursue that case.
