I hope you enjoyed the 2010 NFL season, because there is a decent possibility that will be the last football you watch for quite some time. Hopefully that isn’t the case.
Hopefully, the powers that be get their acts together so we can have a 2011 season. Personally, I wouldn’t mind a lockout if they lock out because the players refuse to play an 18-game schedule. That would be a disaster.
Outside of the owners, I don’t think anybody wants to see that. The NFL wants to work on protecting its players, so how exactly does adding two more games reflect that?
