BetUS Posts Odds on Outcome of NFL Owner's Opt-OutThe NFL officially notified its players union on Tuesday that it will opt out of the current collective bargaining agreement, which could lead to a season without a salary cap in 2010 and a possible lockout in 2011.
With fans on edge, wondering about the state of their beloved league and what the possible consequences of Tuesday's decision might be, BetUS has once again beaten everyone to the punch and come to their aid with odds and predictions of possible outcomes.
"With all of the traffic we've had since the announcement on Tuesday, one thing is very, very clear," stated BetUS spokesman Reed Richards. "Fans are sick and tired of being put through the ringer. It's simply not fair to ask them to wait with bated breath for three seasons wondering if there'll be a lockout at the start of each season. As such, we're putting all of our predictive and analytical prowess on the line in order to give them some semblance of what might happen."
