Info Trickles In...
Very little information coming out at this hour. However what is coming out is only positive....The first source to go on the record said this to me, "From what I am hearing there is work to do, but the work is getting done. This was the most productive and maybe the most positive work week to date."
I will report back when and if more information becomes available

I don't mind people posting Eklund stuff, as it's part of the perks he gets for apparently in talks to be hosted by Someone Important.
But can we not editorialize about his greatness each time you post? There's several different opinions about him around here, and saying either "This is junk because it's Eklund, but here's what he says" or "Here's what the bestest most brightest guy in this whole mess, Eklund, has to say about this" is just asking for a sarcastic response from someone that would derail the whole thread.
For the record, I feel this way about all comments about reporters, whether it's "Larry Brooks is a PA schill" or "dude, I'd have Bob McKenzie's babies for telling us this." Just say what they say and talk about the information presented, not the guy presenting it.
And to make this post on topic, I'm pleased with the directions of these talks, but the sheer length of time more and more leads me to the conclusion that the offers in February from both sides were more PR moves than honest bargaining attempts.
