As for the game/refs/and the plausible deniability????
Here's how the "strike" will get finished...
EVERYONE buying NFL crap/garbage...just quit. Don't buy anything w/an NFL "blessing" on it...
EVERYONE
BETTING just stop. No money coming into Vegas? Guess which silent minority (SM) will be taking the "red eye" to Goodell's office?
SM: "Hey! Gadell! We's got somet'ing ta' talk about wich' ya'!"
Goodell: "Not about that Packer/Seahawk game?"
SM: "Naw! Not about that! (I'm gonna' choke that sucka'!) We're here to make ya's an offer you definately won't refuse! (If ya's knows what we means!)" 
Then amazingly, in the middle of this coming TNF, there's an extended "Official Officials' Time Out" where, at the end of it (Time length to be determined...) a new set of the old refs will be coming out of the locker room at the Giants Stadium and no one knows what, or where, the "replacement refs" went to (probably saying their "Hellos" to Jimmy Hoffa...)
Let the betting begin!!!!
Again!!!
