NFL lockout is now official

As planned, the NFL has locked out the players from any football activities for the forseeable future.

After the players decertified the union so they could sue the league in antitrust litigation, the NFL had the right to put the league under total lockout.

What it means? There will be no NFL mini-camps in May, and no free agency will be allowed to take place this spring and summer. There will will be no training camp, and no regular season games until the new CBA is agreed upon by both sides.

The only NFL activity that will occur, as far as pure football is concerned, will be the release of NFL schedules and the NFL draft in April. Other than that, everything will be on hold.

Good-bye to the National Football League ... for now.
