Before the opening of the NFL season, both Saints and Vikings players walked onto the field and held up their fingers. Apparently, this was a gesture of unity for the upcoming NFL lock out. One problem, had the players not told the announcers about this gesture, then it just would have been a stupid gesture. Memo to the NFL players and Owners, these are tough times and seeing millionaires bitch about millions of dollars doesn’t fly. When the CBA expires and the lock out ensures, there will be ZERO public support. The NFL will take a hit in popularity that will take time to overcome. Without the fans, athletes would be nothing, and owners would have to find other money making endeavors.

So nice gesture millionaires, I hope there is a lock out so you can see what it’s like to not collect those seven figure pay checks. Also, memo to the owners, you are not innocent either. Come to a compromise (you know… like the one that you will eventually sign once you start not collecting those gate receipts) because sports are a wonderful distraction from the problems of the world. We don’t need you to add another problem. Labor negotiations are by far and away the most stupid thing in this country, just make a compromise you fucking spoiled bitches.
