I don’t talk about the NFL Lockout much, mainly because unless they have an agreement, there is nothing to talk about. I am not a lawyer even though I did stay at a Motel 6 last night.
Both the players and the owners are idiots (moreso the owners)
Since the Lockout is now dragging on into the Summer, the NFL is starting to making contingency plans.
The NFL is considering season lengths for 2011 as short as eight regular-season games, half its normal number, as the league plans for the possibility of an abbreviated season because of the nearly three-month-long lockout, sources said.
An eight-game season could start in late November. Allowing for five weeks up front for free agency, training camps and perhaps one preseason game, the contingency suggests that the league and players could reach a deal on a new labor agreement as late as mid- to late October and still salvage a season.
