The Lock Out Is Over

Well who knows. But they have been reporting that it's over all weekend.

This was just a big waste of time to me to be honest. I don't really even care about what happened or what was accomplished. It doesn't seem like anything that I care about. Logan Mankins will not be a free agent, and the franchise tag still exists.

The thing I'm most excited about is the free agent frenzy that is going to happen. Where is Nnamdi Asomghua, Santonio Holmes, Ray Edwards, Carson Palmer, and Braylon Edwards go.

Much like the Patriots, the Steelers also never sign guys that I get excited about so I can throw Nnamdi out the window.

Whatever, the lock out is "over", and training camp begins Thursday. From an outside perspective it seems as if the owners won.

NBA Locked Out

Well we all new this was going to happen, and it sucks, but much like the NFL, I don't want to talk about it. I don't care or want to know what the squabble is over, I just want them to play.

If the NBA loses a season due to a lockout, it would be the dumbest thing the owners could do. The NBA s at the top of the world since the Jordan days and the last NBA finals ratings blew the roof off every other finals. You have such superstar power in the NBA it would be a shame to miss a whole season.

However, as a Celtics fan, it wouldn't be such a bad thing if the season was cut in half. The Celtics last year ran out of gas after cruising in the regular season again so if the season was cut to 50 games they would be fresh during the playoffs. Also it would be kind of cool to see a regular season mean something too.
