"A lot of good news," was how one source Thursday described the recent events to Myers. "Right people, right format, right time. I still think there is a lot of work and a lot of details to work out. They both understand that after this it will become significantly harder to get something (done). It's the optimum moment for reasonable people to find reasonable solutions to problems that are not insolvable. ..." Myers went on to suggest it looks like a deal could get done by early-to-mid-July, explaining: "Basically, the players and owners realize now is the time. If they wait for court rulings and for one side to get real leverage, it's going to be harder to get out of the courts and back onto the field. ..." Stay tuned.
