Would they?

Rather than giving us absoultely nothing, if the lockout is as real as reports say it is will the owners give us some Shane Falco's !!!!!!! ( Replacement players if you don't remember the movie) And if so will you watch?

Great idea. I watched the last scab teams in 87, and they were great. Thats where we got Fourcade. Its just like the USFL and the AFL. They were supposed to be inferior, but when the strike was over, each team found a new star. The Oilers found a previously overlooked LB named Eugene Seale. As a result, the strike lasted only 3 weeks, and the real players got back to work fast.

I'd watch it. Think it could be really interesting to see.

When September come around I would watch any football strike teams or the real players. I will be so desperate I will get a bottle of Hennessy and a lawn chair and watch a pee wee game.

I can watch almost any football regardless of where the players come from.

As long as there's a Fleur de Lis, I'm cheering.

No they won't... They can't...

It defeats the very purpose of a lock out.

If the Players strike then yes they could go get scabs and try and play... the if it is a lock out that means they are stopping the league until they get a deal worked out that they can live with.

LOCK OUT - MEANS THERE IS NO FOOTBALL.

But they are locking the Players out right? Scabs wouldn't be members of the PA would they? if not then why couldnt' they play?

Don't forget there is UFL | United Football League Team Scores, Game Tickets, Videos & News now too. I bet they are hoping for a long lock out to draw some crowds to their games instead.
