What will PSL owners do if 2011 is a lockout?


SCP

Recommended Posts

Frank and Buc are talking about this now on WFNZ. God forbid, If there is no season in 2011, what will PSL owners be forced to do? Is there anything in your contracts that speak about issues like this? Will you be forced to buy tickets like they do for the playoffs and then use that money towards the next season?

Sincerely,

I'd imagine if there were to be no games at all (as in no replacement players), and they knew this ahead of time, PSL owners would never be charged for the year. If the lockout came after they paid, they'd be credited.

I'll be beyond pissed if there is no season in 2011. Panthers games are one of my highlights of the year.

They will not lock out until the last possible hour, so tickets will likely have been purchased by that time. A refund seems appropriate if a lockout happens but is it realistic? You don't get a refund if we don't make the playoffs. They just deduct it from next years bill. Should be interesting to see what happens. I sure as hell hope we don't have to find out though.

Yeah, I hope they get another contract signed soon. I don't think anyone would benefit from the loss of a football season. This is really a pivotal point for Goodell's leadership. Make or break type stuff.

And after doing some research on the current regime running the Player's Association, a lockout sounds very possible (the head of the organization is a lawyer with activist ties... not a former player... so I'd bet he's just running numbers to be greedy... not looking out for the best interests of the sport.)

Wouldn't it suck if the NFL suffered some sort of collapse from this?

Yeah but the playoff bill comes in December and the next season's bill is due in April. That's only a couple of months. They can't hold people's money for over a year like that.

There must be some legal action to take if this ends up being the case.

The Prob will give you a credit on the next year. I think thats how they do with playoff tickets.

There's a big price difference in playoff tickets and season tickets. My two season tickets are $1800 currently. Last year, the playoff tickets were around $500 for the two seats for two games. Huge difference to hold hostage.

I'd be interested to hear if they contact you if a lock out seems unavoidable. I am saving up to buy PSLs for the family and it would be nice to see the precedent they set in this situation.

You get a refund on playoff tixs. You don't have to apply it to the following year. I called the year we paid and had no games....and asked for a refund and they refunded my credit card. They can't hold your money if you ask for a refund. They'll tell you it may take 4-6 weeks but you'll get it...they'll get every bit of interest they can. I told the lady that was unacceptable and that if I have to meet deadlines set by them, I shouldn't have to wait 4-6 weeks for money that didn't need to be spent. The refund was issued that week.

First, I do not see a lock out or strike happening. There is still to much time and both sides are not dumb enough to kill all the momentum the league has and piss off their fan base.

That being said, the teams will do as always and bill us for tix. If there are no games they would probably just credit that towards the next season. If their are scab games they better give me a discount!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
