I would LOL if congress threw the hammer down on these knuckleheads and enforced last best offer. Spector raised an interesting point about these sports leagues being exempt from antitrust laws.

With a congressional threat I think they will be sure to come to an agreement so that doesn't have to happen because one side will lose more than if they work together to solve their differences.

lol congress cant even settle their own crap. Obama Football in 2011. Too Funny.

If these guys don't work this out soon, I would totally support congress dropping the hammer on them... places like Charlotte can't afford to lose out on the revenue generated by the NFL while these spoiled brats argue over 9 billion dollars.

Don't use congress send some former presidents.

are you ready for some racketeering?

I think Charlotte would do better than other smaller cities who would have a larger percentage of their economy based on the football games. Also the places that have their Stadium in a rural area the little buisness around that would really suffer.

Republicans are just as much at fault for the mess were in. These idiots have much bigger fish to fry then this lockout. Instead of cutting spending and getting our house in order lets worry about a private industry thats only a game. There worrying about a couple of billions when we have a problem that is 14.4 trillion and growing.

truth be told, two parties nagging each other like miserable housewives hurts everyone...

Yeah, was just using Charlotte as an example... any NFL city should not have to miss out on the much needed revenue because these guys can't figure out how to split up 9 billion.

Yeah, maybe we can get Barry and Co. to come in and fix up the NFL like they've fixed up our economy.

Oh... wait...

Not really a good video. Arlen Specter is an idiot. The last thing we need is Government hands on something else.

[Jase]

If the govt takes over the NFL like they did GM, can we re-name the Lions to be the Pontiac Aztecs?
