From experience of being in a union when I was much younger I can tell you that union leadership doesn't always look out for the best for their members,.
Not logical. Just because you had one experience does not mean it is the same for the NFLPA. Sometimes there is an unforeseen shift in things
and that is what happened here with RBs.
It was not knowable.
But let's also not pretend the NFL is a free market. It's a cartel with owners revenue sharing and with no competition and with government-sponsored
monopoly exemption.
No, the NFLPA may not be perfect but if you read what they do, they look out for their players very well. I think you'd agree if you read the CBA and all the things
they fight for.
In this case there was a shift in something and it needs to be addressed and fans can gripe all they want but it will be addressed by the NFLPA and the NFL
there are already proposals about grouping positions and things like that--something positive will happen.
