    I've been boycotting the NFL since the first game they put scab refs on the field. Travesty.

    Oh heck yes I'll watch. I love this. It's hilarious. The reactions are priceless. It really is almost like the WWE. I kept waiting for the Packers to march back onto the field for the bogus extra point last night, block it and run it back for a 2-point conversion to win, with Michael Cole screaming about how Goodell screwed the Seahawks.

    I'll still watch every Buccaneers game, probably while doing chores, and that's it. Not really because of bad calls -- those happen -- but the pace of some of these games is ridiculously dull. After a college football Saturday, it's too much and too drawn out.

    I will watch because I'm a Republican and I like watching soulless corporations crush the little man for the sake of a few bucks and the satisfaction that they can. Makes me all warm and fuzzy.

    Diehard NFL fans will keep watching; it's what they do, even the ones who root for the Packers. The league knows this.

    The NFL will wake up when Vegas mentions that gamblers have stopped betting on games.

    It's more than the diehard fans, at least so far. Hell, i watched games with replacement players in 1987, but I'm really only watching Steelers games at this point.

    I don't have a favorite team, so this is the most entertaining NFL I've ever seen. They should play MNF on Comedy Central.

    I eagerly await The Daily Show's take on last night's game.

    Governor Walker.

    Stickin' to the union.

    @GovWalker After catching a few hours of sleep, the #Packers game is still just as painful. #Returntherealrefs

    Seriously, the situations are not at all analogous. If you really want to know why labor unions have lost so much influence in this country, it might have to do with their blind supporters being so purposefully ignorant.
