Brees on NFL labor issues

Saints quarterback Drew Brees is a member of the NFLPA executive committee. As such he speaks for the players union. NFL owners beat the drum about a broken compensation system while Brees essentially says player income is a percentage of revenues. Both team revenue and player salaries are going up. How is that broken? Aint' broke, don't fix it. Think strike - both sides have a lot to lose.
