Quote:
The Sports Business Journal's Liz Mullen reports the NFL will request that the NFLPA resume mediation under Federal mediator George Cohen.
The owners' request is a response to a letter the players sent requesting that the NFL submit to federal court mediation, aimed at settling the anti-trust lawsuit. The league has no interest in negotiating a settlement, presumably because they don't want a federal judge overseeing the next CBA. With Judge Nelson strongly hinting that she agrees with the players on key points, the NFL may have missed its window to continue mediation under Cohen.
