Could you stop watching NFL football on TV if it meant ending the strike? [View all]

Perhaps the only entity powerful enough to force owners to capitulate/bargain with the NFLRA is going to be the television networks, their sponsors, and their respective parent companies. Of course, this would have to be accompanied with a massive e-mail/phone/letter-writing campaign and millions of terminated cable subscriptions. But I think the message would be heard loud and clear.

Could you give up the NFL?

I think I could, in October for sure (MLB playoffs and NCAA).
