CFLPA Ratification Vote Thread

Thought I'd start a new thread relating to today's ratification vote. This could become a very busy topic if the players vote down the pending deal. I wonder when the results will be released to the media? #keepingmyfingerscrossed

Oh my ******* word. This worries me sick. Just ratify it already!

probably won't hear nothing until tomorrow... after the board of governors vote on it even.

Player online polling closes at 8pm tonight so we might hear results later tonight.

Jeebus, just nine teams & it takes all day? This should be over in an hour. This whole CBA process just totally sucks.

Except that what is the point to the board of governors voting if the players end up rejecting the CBA? I'm we'll hear something tonight.

We'll hear it tonight. I'm assuming 8 pm is EDT?

Yes, that is EDT. So 6 for me, and 7 for alot of you guys.

good point. Never thought of that. Yeah alright, i'd suspect tonight after 6 your time, 7 ours. maybe closer to 7 yours, 8 ours.

They won't vote against it. If the CFLPA tells them to ratify it they will ratify it otherwise why do they even have the PA representing them in the first place? Quit worrying about nothing.

Hope you're right. Lots of bitching by players. The tweet by Iannuzzi took the cake today.

This is true. I'm always worried about the possibility of having no football though, even if it's a slim chance.

Why worry? The reps and the PA are the elite of the membership. Not the grassroots grunts at the bottom. The saving grace for the membership is 8 of the 9 teams voting include rookies who should be thrilled with their immediate benefits. I would be more concerned about a rejection vote if the rookies were totally excluded.

There are a lot of players who like to speak before thinking, I wouldn't worry what they say. 

From the twitter feed on the side of the forum:

 

Ratification deadline came and went about 1hr ago. Reps have conference call tonight, but Stamps reps don't expect results til morning #CFL

Oh gosh, no  :angry:.

 

Lord, they just keep on delaying this bullshit.

They'll ratify it. I don't think the imports can even stay here if they aren't working. The ones who aren't Canadian Citizens anyway. I'm sure a few will vote 'no' but yeah, if the PA says take they'll take it. What else are they going to do?
