  Football Owner Fires Her Team

Not exactly a textbook case of how to handle a labor dispute by Jamie LaMunyon, owner of the Montgomery Maulers of the National Indoor Football League. She didn't like her players demanding back wages, so, she's fired the entire team.

The mass firings came after four players held a news conference threatening to not travel to a road game unless they were paid. LaMunyon says she'll field replacement players for the next game in Osceola, Florida, tomorrow, and if a player wasn't paid, she's sorry, but, ``that happens everywhere.''
