If anyone from Yahoo or ESPN reads this site, please take note. When posting a headline regarding the NBA lockout, you'd be best served to specifically denote - with bold, italicized, or even different colored print, that you are talking about the NBA, and not the NFL.
See, when I read a headline like, "Players, owners still $8 billion apart" or "Negotiations deadlocked," with no denotation of what league you're referring to, I'm not going to assume you mean the NBA lockout, which Bill Simmons and 5 other people care about. You know very well that the NFL is the default setting for the rest of us. Stop misleading us into clicking your headline because we think it's the league we actually care about. This is akin to putting something like "New York 4, Boston 2" on an update crawl, and not indicating that it's a women's soccer score and not a baseball one.
