As I empty out the DVR with episodes of Wilfred and Louis C.K. while constantly checking Twitter for more tidbits from Albert Breer of NFL Network and e-mailing and/or DM-ing others who may have an inkling as to what in the hell is currently going on, the only thing anyone knows for sure at this point is that the parties are still meetings, well after midnight, Minnesota time.
Per Breer, the league representatives at the meeting gradually have been leaving, which suggests that the process has ended for the night -- without a deal but apparently with a renewed commitment to working toward getting something done.
So let’s see when they get back together, and for how long.
UPDATE: Breer reports that the talks will resume at 8:00 a.m. CT on Friday, barely seven hours from now. And that is good news. Now let’s hope they’ll keep working until they can give us better news.
