Gene Wojciechowski doesn’t bury his sentiment in a recent ESPN.com piece about the NFL. Right up front, in the first and second paragraphs, is this:

Righteous Roger is at it again.

That would be NFL commissioner Roger Goodell — ownership mouthpiece, Pacman Jones probation officer, destroyer of Sypgate evidence. The more Goodell talks, the less I think there will be an NFL season in 2011.

Much of the piece centers around recent comments Goodell made about the rookie salary structure, which we agree is way out of line and would benefit from an NBA-style adjustment. But no football three years from now? We sure hope that’s just a bit of a writer’s scare ol’ Gene is trying to throw into folks. We barely remember 1987, at least in any sort of meaningful way. Wiping out an entire season would be, in a word, brutal. Your thoughts?
