Another possibility: boxing making a big comeback. And mixed martial arts becoming even more popular.

I'd party like it's 1999.

What the hell is the NBA anyway?

If the NFL season is canceled, they can just reschedule college games to Sunday. The whiny overpaid pros who go out for the season with stubbed toes won't be missed...

Can't say as I blame you; the thought of billionaires fighting with millionaires over who's getting what percentage of outrageous sums of money doesn't concern me in the least.

But let's face it: if there's no NFL football or NBA basketball this autumn and winter, there's probably going to be a huge rise in alternative programming--which will undoubtedly be the stuff of nightmares.
