I believe that they are, and will continue to be. I also believe that in the end, the players will cave. The owners are all billionaires, a large percentage of the players are in the $400k - $500k range and accustomed to living a certain life style. IMHO - Once they start losing game checks, this will get resolved quickly, mainly by this group pushing the effort. Owners can deal with a lost season, probabably not to thier liking, but they will survive. Can't really say that about the majority of the players in the leage.
