I agree with Kevin Mawae on the 2011 NFL Draft: "...the potential draft picks, they’re all men and we’ve treated them as men and they are soon to be equals with us and it’s their decision what to do on Draft day. But here’s the thing, why would you want to stand up on a stage with a man that is going to prevent you from making a living, that has called for a lockout, and shined yourself all over the TV screen for the shield when in fact they’re the ones who are locking you out in the first place?" http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Kevin-Mawae-on-the-draft-We-have-not-boycotted.html
