However, not everyone feels the same away.NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith was recently asked about the po sibility that there will be an season this year and he definitely didn't expre s the same confidence that Goodell has shown over the past few months.During Smith was asked what his confidence level was -- on a Paul Carey Jersey scale of one to 10 (most confident) -- that a season would happen, and let's just say, he definitely didn't give a 10."Well, UVA law graded on a curve, so I'm going Tie Domi Jersey to go with probably a six, seven," Smith said.

If baseball and basketball go off without a hitch this summer, then Smith will likely feel a lot better about the po sibility of the NFL season happening."Look, a lot depends on what happens with the other sports, and to say that we aren't looking at what's going to be happening in basketball and baseball -- and we're not looking at how they work through these things -- I'd be lying to you if we're not," Smith said.
