Bottom line is 8-12 guys will not affect the outcome much, but if true it does present an awkward position to defend.

Not even close to how difficult/awkward it is to defend the DAL proposal. But as we know, the arbitrators will decide.

I think it's time to realize that all of this is like what Michael said in the Godfather, "it's not personal, it's just business." I promise to try not to take it personal.

I hope it's not that other quote from "Fat Clemenza" after his assistant kills their driver..."Leave the gun, bring the canollis."

Since its probably past your bed time, I'll wait until tomorrow for your response.
Good night big guy!

As opposed to the NW opener last spring with NW getting the top 500 spots and 2000 DAL guys at the bottom. That was the time to be reasonable - now that lawyers are involved its hardball on both sides, its a shame we couldn't work this out last spring.

Yes, it is a shame. You think maybe both sides can be blamed for that?
