Maybe this will be a campaign issue: equal pay to MLB and NBA.

[Cowboy Bob]

Go on strike. See if I give a shiite...

[EliRoom8]

GREAT!!!!!!!!!! More bad public relations for the SJW Football League.

[Malcolm Reynolds]

You also have to realize you’re replaceable, because it’s happened before.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Yeah, and the NHL players took it right up the shorts.

To improve their individual pay, NFL players need to improve their collective pay. To improve their collective pay, they need to be willing to strike.

I agree, I think it's a disgrace that most NFL players need foodstamps just to feed their families. The NFL has never been more popular among common folks so this is probably the best time ever to strike so go ahead players...call a strike. We're all behind ya!

[Pollster1]

That is exactly what the NFL needs this year, with no Colin K. to disrupt their remaining viewers. I hope the players do it.

Fans are going to discover they have better things to do with their lives. No doubt they will ditch the football attire and memorabilia too.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Too late - the fans already did.

[Fiji Hill]

Maybe the union will kill the NFL the way militant, uncompromising unions killed Eastern Airlines and the Los Angeles Herald Examiner and New York World Journal Tribune newspapers.

[Travis McGee]

Go ahead and strike. I double-dog dare you.

[BitWielder1]

Go ahead, and learn the meaning of non-essential.

[dangerdoc]

I hope they do go on strike! Stick it to the man! Stay out all season, the fans will come crawling back to you. Do it! Do it! Do it!.

[mykroar]

Perfect time to strike. I didn’t watch a game last year and didn’t miss it a bit. Maybe you’ll piss off a few of the folks that still watched last year. Let’s keep dropping those ratings.

[poinq]

I am done with the NFL. If they strike they should spend the time looking for a new career.

[TADSLOS]

Promises, Promises....just like hollyweird threatening to flee the country.

[DungeonMaster]

JUST DO IT!

[Salvavida]

Please strike!! Pretty please!!

[KarlInOhio]

I heard on a discussion of this on a sports radio. They were talking about how it was easy for union reps and quarterbacks with ten year careers to talk about missing a season. But the problems were with convincing the linemen and backup running backs who might be in the league for three years, making the most money they ever will, to give up one of those years so future players can make more.
