It's one thing for United Airlines to reduce wages of its pilots or mechanics through a bankruptcy filing. That doesn't help you out very much in the sport world, ... You need the star athlete paid the big bucks to be happy and part of the team. And particularly in a situation where there is a collective bargaining agreement, you can't cherry pick. If you do something (voiding player contracts), you'd have to do it across the board.
