If there was a major work stoppage in football, it would be perceived as a calamity.
People would be like, what am I going to gamble on?
What am I going to do with my life?
This is everything.
It was everything to me, whatever.
You saw this during COVID.
Like they had to play these games, right?
They had to play these games, even though like colleges were not, no one was in class, but they still didn't play college football games.
And in the future, I don't think that it will be the calamity it would be now because people are,
little by little losing their real personal relationship to football.
They see it solely as an entertainment distraction more and more.
It's not something they played or their dad played or their friends played or any of these things.
It was it's like it was only this thing that, well, we all watch football on the weekend.
That's just kind of what we do.
And when that stops, it will not be a disaster.
We'll be like, oh, well, there's something else.
The way football has structured, the way the NFL is structured, it can't, it's not made to bear that scenario.
It can't contract.
So I'm not saying that football is going to be just wiped off the planet like a meteor, you know, killing the dinosaurs or whatever.
