COLLEGE PARK, Ga. - NFL owners overwhelmingly approved a tentative agreement Thursday that would end the lockout, provided that players re-establish their union and sign off on the proposal. But the players didn't vote, leaving the country's most popular sport in limbo for at least another day.
Owners and players failed to see eye-to-eye on much of anything for months, so perhaps the way Thursday's events unfolded shouldn't have come as a surprise.

ST. LOUIS -- Baseball players and owners proclaimed an unprecedented era of labor peace, finalizing a new five-year collective bargaining agreement Tuesday night before Game 3 of the World Series.
Lawyers struck the deal last weekend during negotiations in New York, then worked on putting it in writing. The agreement, which runs through the 2011 season, is subject to ratification by both sides. The deal makes relatively minor changes to the previous agreement, and doesn't alter baseball's drug rules.

NEW YORK - Baseball players and owners signed an agreement for a new labor contract Tuesday, a deal that makes baseball the first North American professional major league to start blood testing on human growth hormone and expands the playoffs to 10 teams by 2013.
The five-year deal collective bargaining agreement makes changes owners hope will increase competitive balance by pressuring large- market teams to rein in spending on amateur draft picks and international signings.
