The NFL was a wonderful thing. Pete Rozelle and Wellington Mara conceived the current system where a small market team like Green Bay can compete on a level playing field with the likes of LA, Chicago, NY, et al. The fear, to me, was that irresponsible, greedy owners like Jerry Jones would seek to turn the NFL into MLB (which is about as competitive as Clemson playing the University of New Hampshire in football.)

But now a new threat, the players seek to turn the NFL into the NBA where they force movement to more desirable teams. What's worse, MLB or the NBA? I, for one, pay no attention to either one and can easily add the NFL to the list.

Right after the march on the stadium of course. Don't want to miss that.

The only sport that will be worth watching will be the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs. Six weeks of pure mayhem.
