Scabs

[TENNFOLD1974]

With the possibility of a lockout next year...do you think the owners will get scabs like they did back in '87?

 

[JTrainDavis]

I think they would remember how well that worked out for them and just take a year off if nessecary

So you are saying Crompton still has a chance?

no. this is a lockout, not a strike. If the owners lockout the players, they lock out all of them. ESPN's said that as well

looks like they answered that question in the AFC south chat today:

(3:44 PM)

During a lockout there can't be scabs. A strike yes. But if the owners lock out some players, they lock out all players. So no reunion for us, chief.

Chat: Chat with Paul Kuharsky - SportsNation - ESPN


So yeah. If it were a strike, we could have scab (replacement) players, but a full-bown lockout means no players at all....so no football if they go through with a lockout, it's not really possible

A lockout can result in replacement players, but the company doing the locking out (the NFL) would need to declare an impasse in negotiations and go before the NLRB, who ultimately would decide whether replacements can be used.

So you're saying there's a chance...
