The NFL fans of the world are going to be sad this year of 2011 because NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is enforcing a lockout for the 2011 season. The lockout is happening because of how much money the NFL is actually losing then recieving. The amount of money the players get is rediculous, Peyton Manning alone recieves over 100 million dollars over a 7 year contract with the indianapolis colts. That one player alone gets a large amount of money in which most people will not even live to see. The commissioner has enforced the lockout because if the NFL does not start getting more income then outcome then the NFL will be no more and will not be able to function. The ideas that Roger came up with is to raise ticket price and what not in order to be able to keep up with the players salary or even cut down on the players salary. The main reason for the lockout is because it would cause chaos with teams trying to make trades and signing free agents, teams wouldn't have the finances to do such a thing or let a lone even pay their own players.
