A series of decisions in federal court
After losing a series of decisions in federal court, the most recent on Wednesday night, the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] N.F.L. will slowly reopen for business Friday morning, putting an end ― perhaps just a brief one ― to a lockout that has left the league dormant for almost seven weeks. Players will be allowed to work out at team facilities, meet with coaches, receive playbooks, get medical treatment and otherwise go about the business of the off-season. Free agency, though, is an issue that has not been entirely resolved.
But any form of business as usual should please the hundreds of fans who, 30 minutes before the draft opened, chanted, “We want football” and loudly booed Commissioner Roger Goodell from the seats at Radio City Music Hall. “I hear you,” Goodell responded from the podium. “I agree with you. Me, too.” But football activities, even in this limited version, might end quickly. The Eighth Circuit Court of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Appeals is considering a request from the league for a temporary delay of United States District Court Judge Susan Richard Nelson’s injunction to stop the lockout. It is likely to decide on that on Friday.
The temporary stay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if it is granted, would allow the N.F.L. to slam the doors shut again as the appeals court considers a request for a longer stay that would cover the length of the league’s appeal of the injunction decision. The league has sought to buy time since Nelson issued the injunction Monday evening. When she denied its request for a delay, the N.F.L. began its deliberate move to walk a [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] tightrope between defying Nelson’s order and creating chaos by allowing player transactions, only to have to potentially put an end to them days later.
