ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP)—Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen has sent an open
letter to fans apologizing for the NFL’s labor discord.
Bowlen, co-chair of the NFL’s management council executive committee, wrote:
“I am sorry the negotiating efforts have yet to yield a new deal.” Last week,
the league locked out the players, who decertified their union so they could sue
the NFL in federal court.
Bowlen’s letter stated that the quickest way to reach a fair agreement was
for both sides to continue negotiations through mediation.
The team also sent a letter to season ticket holders this week outlining its
refund policy in case any 2011 games are canceled because of the impasse.
