5,000,000 NFL fans against 2012 lockout

Thought this was interesting.

Excerpt on Pat Yasinskas NFC South Blog:

"Michael in North Hollywood, Calif. writes: Some of us started up a Facebook page called "5,000,000 NFL fans against 2012 lockout." Pretty self explanatory, but I'll explain anyway. We want to get five million NFL fans to join, then we'll pass it along to the NFLPA and NFL/Owners to let them know that the people responsible for all they have are not happy about their nonsense. If possible, would you mind passing this information along to your readers? The more we get, the louder we are.

Pat Yasinskas: Consider it passed along to the NFC South blog readership"

Now join and let our voices be heard!!

Looks pretty unofficial if you ask me.

They don't even have the right logo for the Shield.

When has the NFL cared about what the fans think?

[BleedingBLKnBlue]

That's the link - it's unofficial b/c it's fan made. We're the ones paying to watch their games and responsible for making the rich, richer. They'll start caring once we stop their revenue flow.

It's a pretty grey area - then you'll get into the whole issue of freedom of speech.

They know what's at stake. If they can't figure something out, they will just do what they did last time....scrubs from Canada and those that cross the line. Ryan Leaf might even get a second chance.

I would actually like to see them pick up some scrub off the streets - the quality of the NFL would drop down so significantly that some multi-billionaire will have to start up a new league and who is willing to pay top dollar for true stars.

Thats the logo from 1980-2008, so I would say it is probably still the group.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

It aint gonna make it to 5,000,000 though.

they don't care. They know if they don't play in 2011 that everyone claiming they will "lose them as fans" will be right back when they are ready to play again.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

If the NHL can have a lock out and come back and survive than everyone better know d*mn well that the NFL will survive after a lock out.

I would think it would be a trademark violation.

Your right, I actually have the Panthers logo painted in my room and I had to get it approved before I had it done.
