Scott Soshnick, Michael Barr and Ira Boudway discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the NFL Players Association pointing out to its members that more than 25% of the grievances filed by players over the past two years were against one team: the Jacksonville Jaguars. One player alone was fined 25 times for more than $700,000 for missed rehabilitation appointments that an arbitrator later ruled violated the labor contract.
