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.

      https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/versatile-2nd-db-named-panthers-154026075.html Smith-Wade's ability to play corner, nickel and safety makes him valuable to a young defense trying to rebuild after finishing last in the NFL a year ago. "Chau took advantage of an opportunity,'' coach Dave Canales said. "He made tackles. He had an opportunity on an interception, and he made it.'' Our defense has got to come alive for us to have a chance of winning our Division!

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.
