Am I the only guy who is not really bummed out by all this.
I mean yea I will loose NFL this year, yet...........meh. I guess I'm just not invested in the argument.
Also, one thing I think is unique about this is that there doesn't seem to be huge stinks raised from fans, they seem dissapointed in both sides just due to the perception of "millionares vs. billionares". Am I Wrong?
Both sides have some good points but with all the money involved it's just a whole nother world.
Oh, well at least College Football can't lockout.
Between my farorite team, fantasy football and just an overall excitement about NFL football I will be pretty upset if there is no season.
Am I the only person amused that this is happening on Roger Goodell's watch? This PR nightmare couldn't have happened to a more deserving *******, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm beginning to think that there's as much window dressing as there is actual substance to this whole idea of losing the 2011 NFL season. There's too much money involved for the league to go so far as cancel the season. At the same time, a league with teams full of replacement players (which they're currently denying as a possibility) isn't going to be acceptable.
That's why I believe this season is going to happen. First, there will have to be a lot of drama (read: media hype). But everyone will suit up and take the field just in time.

I'm not sure, I still think they miss a game or two. I hear a lot of players don't manage their money well. See Dez Bryant...
Most athletes in general don't manage their money well. The NBA offers free (yes free, despite these guys making millions) classes to players about financial management so they don't go bankrupt 2 years after they retire.
