NFL Lockout???


Okay so anyone who follows the NFL knows that a lockout is looming. The NFL and the NFLPA have not been able to come to an agreement on the details of the new collective bargaining agreement up to this point. Monday, the NFL and NFLPA issued a joint statment saying that they have scheduled meetings for the near future and are going to try to work out the kinks in the deal. However, players don't seem to be so confident. In an interview with 93.7 The Fan, Steelers RB Isaac Redman said that the lockout is "100% Definate." You can listen to the full interview at: http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/category/sports/

While the lockout isn't as definate as Redman claims, it would put a damper on sports in Pittsburgh for a while. Maybe it'll work out though since both of the times we went to the Superbowl in the last decade, the Steelers finished at or one game above .500 the following season and had a measly 0-1 record in the playoffs. Hopefully we don't have to endure a season without though because as good as the pens began the season, injuries seem to be taking their toll as proven in the loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight.
