    If NFL is locked out...what do YOU do?
    Hey boys,

    Let's assume the millionaires versus the billionaires doesn't get settled. What the hell are you going to do without NFL football on Sunday? No MNF either?!

    What do you bet on or do you just wait it out? Vote in the poll dammit and gimme some ideas.

    Stop betting because NFL is the only sport I bet

    I'll bet more on college football

    I'll expand my betting to include college and pro hoops

    Nothing will change because I bet on value regardless of sport

            99% will give two shits about the nfl (i do feel bad for the people that have jobs related to it) with college on and they will go on with their life like they should. those clowns have no clue about the real world and think they are larger than life.

                    NASCAR goes through November 20, college ball is in full swing and enjoy my family. Our lives will go on without the NFL.

                        I disagree with the first part of your post as there are tons of people that care. However, the second part of your post is absolutely true. These guys have no clue about the real world until they retire.

                            After watching countless hours of NFL, college football, basketball, college basketball, MMA, hockey, boxing, tennis, baseball, and even soccer, I have come to the conclusion that soccer is by far the worst sport. It's embarrassing to see nothing for two hours except sissies flop around and fake an injury for 30 seconds and then get up and continue to play. No guts or toughness whatsover. Terrible sport and I have no respect for the athletes or fans.

                                  I think college football will take full advantage of increasing their revenue and put some big TV ticket games on Sunday,Monday and Thursday.Wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit to watch college over the NFL.

                                    I think there will be many who will give college football a try and may actually end up preferring it over the pro game. How good would that be to hit those greedy bastards right in the pocket.

                                        Yea looks like I'm gonna have to really dominate baseball and ride it out with guys Justin Turner, Dillon Gee, Mark Melconan and all the other no-name scrubs making a noise in MLB fantasy this year.

                                        No fantasy football this year s gonna suck big time.

                                          I just hope that the NFL doesn't have a shortened season. either a full season or nothing. they could push back the starting dates until october or november but play a full season 17 week season.

                                                I'll be depressed for a while until hockey starts. There is always NCAA football, but there is something about Sundays that can never be replaced.

                                                  If there is no football on Sunday, there is no reason to live.

                                                    There is talk of the Pac 12 or what ever they are now moving to Sunday.

                                                      If the NFL is not going to have a season in 2011 lots of people will have time to kill on Sundays and Monday nights. And despite popular belief crime will not rise.

                                                      I personally won't care because:

                                                      1. I'm not very good a picking winners in NFL and hardly bet any money on it
                                                      2. I find the sport impossible to watch from start to finish when a game last 4 hours and has 15 minutes of actual 'game play'
