even if there are other events, could you just easily take 41 furlough days without blinking an eye? They might not be totally out of work, but they are by FAR getting the *****iest end of the stick out of the whole situation.

There aren't gonna be 41 furlough days because there will be other stuff in its place. That's exactly what I'm saying.

Do you guys think there will be an NBA season or not?

I'll say no, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised to see the players cave and we get half a season or some bull**** like that.

Good thing is that they've disgusted me so much that I don't feel too bad about it now.

I still think we are gonna have some sort of season, Pretty sure the owners are trying to see how players react to life without a paycheck before there next move

I haven't been reading much on the lockout because it pisses me off too much, but this was a good read IMO.

It's best no one comments on the elephant in the room in that article though.
