So it looks like there wont be a 2011 Football Season.

So Yesterday the NFL players union decided to decertify, which essentially means that they dissolved. Now the dissolution of the players Union is usually done in response to a lockout or something of that nature and it allows to players to sue the NFL under anti-trust statutes. Now in today's legal world...these type of lawsuits will take months if not a year to settle.

So it looks like the perfect time to get into Major League Soccer.

Maybe this will shut up those obnoxious Raiders fans for a while.

Madden 12 is still coming out apparently, so no one's loss. Dynasty mode might be weird though.

You're negotiating a deal between the owners and the players.

The fate of football is in your hands.

There is Billions of dollars to go around, why can't they work something out for the love of Pete (Pete is a huge fan btw).

This is very frustrating for me because if there isn't something on TV on sundays during the "Awesome" time of year, I might have to start reading books............DID YOU HEAR THAT, READ BOOKS!?!?!?!!?!!


AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Ya know, honesty & the truth never hurt any situation. Instead of beating around the bush just to watch something that she doesnt wanna watch, try going outside for once in your life & have some fun. Theres gotta be 1 thing in your neighborhood/city that can be fun to do. If that fails, start renting/buying movies to watch. If you take out all the ridiculous commercials, its pretty much the same time period as a typical 2 hr movie (even tho big name production companies dont make many 2 hr or longer movies anymore).

Just a couple of ideas to try & help you out during this "terrible" time.

Imo, the football players need to grow up & grow some for real. Im talking about the ones that make millions every year & are greedy bout makin even more.
