Jurisprudence
Attorneys for eight players suing the NFL on antitrust grounds said that some financial conclusions of the league’s economist are incomplete. University of Iowa professor George Daly testified earlier that NFL owners earned less money by buying football teams than they would have earned in other industries during the 1980s.
But players’ attorney Jeffrey Kessler stressed that Daly’s conclusions did not include the money owners made in salary and operating profit on their teams.
The trial has recessed until Aug 31 while Judge David Doty attends to a criminal case.
