Remember the NFL lockout back in 2011?
I do. It sucked!
Instead of being able to look forward to the upcoming football season, fans were stuck following along with a bunch of boring legal stuff.
It was a relief that the work stoppage didn’t last into the regular season, though it did stretch out until late July. Eagles fans will (unfortunately) remember that time well. It was the birth of the dreaded “Dream Team” era, after all. Philadelphia signed a bunch of free agents (Nnamdi Asomugha, Jason Babin, Vince Young, Cullen Jenkins, Ronnie Brown, Evan Mathis) right as a shortened training camp began.
