Default Players Union Expects 2011 Lockout
Washington Post - NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith paints a bleak picture of the league's labor situation.

Smith says the likelihood of a lockout after the upcoming season is "14" on a scale of 1 to 10.

He notes that the league recently received a $5 billion extension on its network television deals even if no games are played in 2011. He regards that as proof owners are preparing for a lockout

Scab football will be cool. I hope the Broncos can find some solid guys.

Yeah, it could be fun. If I were a Colt fan though I would be pissed.

Players can't cross the picket line if they are locked out, right? In other words, I think it's only during a strike that you can have scabs and replacement players playing together...?

If they are locked out there will be no football, not even scab football.

No doubt. One year of Manning's career stolen from them.
