A very diverse wrap-up of links, below. I hope that everyone has a very enjoyable long Memorial Day weekend. While there are no football links, the chatter surrounding the pending concussion lawsuits continues and a new issue concerning whether NFL teams colluded to effectively create a salary cap in the uncapped year. And who can forget the defamation lawsuit filed by Jonathan Vilma against Roger Goodell? The NFL has its hands very full with litigation these days. Here are some stories I missed over the past week:
