Further, to directly address the premise of the video, how and why would the termination of the collective bargaining agreement between the NFL and NFLPA have any bearing on how those two entities individually license their respective intellectual property to third parties? I don't see any connection there.


I just wanted some discussion, is all. It begs the question “What if”; and I’ve seen independent game companies make leaps and bounds in improvements. Axis Football is a prime example of this. This might be a loaded statement, but I don’t think people care too much about the NFLPA. There will always be created rosters that can implement real-life players.
