In reply to the discussion: Tom Brady is Lucky That He is A Union Member [View all]ShrimpPoboy
(301 posts)24. You may be right
Or ownership could have gotten together and agreed not to let any player have those rights. If that were the case, Brady wouldn't have been able to get it. Again, what were top players getting before the CBA? It's only a few years old. Did Brady negotiate for this before 2011? I don't know and I doubt you do either.
What we do know to be fact is that the arbitration and appeals rights he currently has come from the union negotiated CBA, alternate realities notwithstanding.
