Drew!

I hope they nail them.

After a final day of negotiations, the players union formally dissolved itself, a process known as decertification. Such a move is highly unusual, but it allowed players to seek an injunction in federal court to prevent the league from implementing a lockout and to sue the N.F.L. on antitrust grounds.

Among the 10 named plaintiffs in the 52-page antitrust suit filed in United States District Court in Minneapolis are some of the game’s most famous players, including quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees. Because the plaintiffs are listed alphabetically, the lawsuit will technically be referred to as Brady v. N.F.L.
Almost almost almost could have called this "Brees v. N.F.L." Yet another reason to hate Tom Brady.
