The Art of War

"All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved.

"Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.

"He who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not, will be victorious.

"He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious."

-- Sun Tzu, late 6th century BCE


"I have met with many of you since becoming Commissioner. You know of my respect and admiration for you as men and players. We need to come together, and soon.

“In that spirit, we are prepared to negotiate a full agreement that would incorporate these features and other progressive changes that would benefits players, clubs, and fans. Only through collective bargaining will we reach that kind of agreement. Our goal is to make our league even better than it is today, with the benefits shared by all of us.”

-- NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell, March 17, 2011.
