Lockout seems inevitable...what will you do

[Kakarot]

I guess I'll just spend my sundays at the YMCA playing more basketball during that time, or go fishing I guess??? More studying lol, I dont know. I hope they dont lockout. Sept and Oct will be horrible. I need NFL football or something to atleast hold me off until the NBA season starts.

While both sides are at fault, players HAVE to start taking pay cuts, rookies first. It's getting out of hand. It started in MLB with A-Rod with the Rangers then Yankees. When I was a kid no player would even dream of making $100m+ per contract. I understand that as time grows, so does life's expenses...but the rate things are going, we'll have a $200m contract before you know it and some rookie will make $100m. It's getting crazy. NOBODY, in any sport, or in any profession for that matter deserves that much money. Nobody.

Roger already stated that the the NFL has preperations if a lockout were to occur.

He also suggested that the current players do the same.

This was from an interview a while back on NFL network

I will move on with my life.

And now your starting QB for your Carolina Panthers...Joe Nobody!!!

Wouldn't that suck if replacement players won us the Super Bowl? I don't think you could boast about it, could you?

Don't and won't believe there will be a lockout. They will find a way to get it worked out.

Watch even more hockey and basketball!

Watch even more hockey and basketball!

That's what I'm talking about, hopefully the canes will be playing good.

More ski trips,maybe watch more college football.Maybe drive 3 hours to an early season Hurricane game if they decide to get their sh#t together!Yeah,watch more hockey even if the Hurricanes suck again!I still don't see a lot of people ditching the NFL for good,I like watching college ball but I really don't keep up w/it as much,no playoffs,bowl games don't mean sh#t to me!

[2plankingpanther]

The two big things owners want are a rookie cap and the players to take a 15-20 percent cut. ( If it happens I say the cut being around 10-15 percent would be enough for owners.)

If it doesn't happen, then lockout by the owners..

I agree w/the rookie cap!

Ehh, as much as I love the NFL, I can deal with Sunday's minus Panthers. As soon as they get a deal and football returns, I will be back, no hard feelings. Oddly, a strike really doesn't bother me all that much.

[CanadianCat]

what really going to suck is that my fantasy football team will probably suffer!

[CarolinaPride5]

Get a lot more things done on Sundays. But if this happens I'd never care much about the NFL after.
