You know what makes an NFL Lockout next year even worse? This.

NEW YORK (AP) -- NBA players' association executive director Billy Hunter said Monday he is "99 percent sure" there will be a lockout next summer.

NO FOOTBALL. NO BASKETBALL. ITS GOING TO BE HELL PEOPLE.

I guess College Football Ratings will be through the roof....Wouldn't surprise me if they move games to sunday.....

Only College Football will be played during thanksgiving and Christmas....

It's horrible as successful as these sports are while sports like baseball, hockey, and nascar struggle they are gonna jeopardize their fan base....

In struggling economic times people do not like billionaires arguing with millionaires over money. I guarantee you both sports will not pick up where they left us, especially basketball... they really can't afford a lockout.

the NBA lockout doesnt make the NFL lockout worse. who gives a poo about the NBA honestly? they need a lockout to happen. the NFL doesnt.

maybe people will start watching hockey again.

A lot of people gives a poo about NBA. The ratings have been on the rise the past years and good as of lately.

So people like myself have came back to the sport. They will be severily hurt by a lockout. Like I said other sports ratings are going down, theirs have been consistently going up.

Ehh... I'd rather watch the team game in college basketball instead of the superstar game of the NBA anyways.

I use to feel the way... But I am loving the NBA right now!! I won't really watch College Basketball until February/March.... NBA I've been watching this season from the beginning. Last year was probably the most NBA playoff games I've ever watched. I think I saw just about every one televised but a few.

Hockey I partially take back.... Looks like the ratings did not carry over from the olympics and went right back down, but ratings got hot for the Stanley Cup.

Still the Playoff ratings were not comparable to the NBA....
