If this doesn't resolve in the next few weeks, at some point, they'll start talking about when they have to sign so that games won't be missed. And there's a lot of talk about how the NFL has so many fans, they can't withstand a lockout better than NBA, NHL, MLB could. One thing to consider is that they need to get their act together and confirm there will be a season by about August 1, or they will lose more FFL "fans" than they think.
It might be a little later than that, but the reality is, if they don't resolve in time for drafts to be scheduled, fantasy leagues that are on shakey ground will fold (I have two like this that I'm skeptical I could revive in 2012 if we "lose" 2011). Personally, I've watched a total of about 12 games in the other leagues where I don't play fantasy in the last five years, and I'm sure football would end up the same for me and others like me if the fantasy hook goes away.
