I think the NFL realizes it has a good thing going and will get something resolved before a lockout happens.

It would be suicide to take it to that measures in this type of economic climate.

The NHL is still trying to recover from their lockout and if it wasnt for steroids who knows if baseball would have ever made it back.

Well, the top franchises (from an earnings perspective) can easily weather the storm of a lockout season.

The bottom feeders... I don't know if they can. Not well, certainly.

Makes me wonder if this is a mechanism to force out some of the less value-adding owners... get them to sell, have guys who are a little more hard-core about marketing and maximizing value....
