An often hilarious look back at the 2011 lockout…brought to you by Snickers
In September of 2011 there was a lockout, meaning that the owners didn’t literally lock the players out but they basically did. This caused there to be no NFL football season. Many would say the situation is idiotic.
On Tuesday night (last night) they interviewed Drew Brees on ESPN. He said that him and all the other players want to get back on the field and play football and that he hopes that everything gets sorted out. The stupid part is that the stadiums are just sitting there and nobody’s using them. The players should just play anyway, the NFL couldn’t do anything about it. They could make money by selling stuff like T-shirts, like they normally do. (Note: I have a Donovan McNabb shirt.)
They could also build windmills in the stadium that make electricity. That way they wouldn’t have to pay any electric bills. In conclusion, the NFL lockout doesn’t make any sense and they could fix it if everyone wasn’t millionaires.
Sincerely,
Chad Foreman
P.S. Also if the NFL came back, the riots would probably stop. I can’t believe they blew up the Liberty Bell. It was a legendary monument in history.
