NBA Players Locked Out After No Deal
LeBron's move to Miami and Dirk's title in Dallas couldn't hide a simple fact: Owners insisted they were losing money, perhaps $300 million this season, and weren't interested in subsidizing a system they felt guaranteed they'd keep losing more. So the NBA locked out its players, a long-expected move that put the 2011-12 season in jeopardy and came as the NFL is trying to end its own work stoppage that began in March. The latest lockout began at 12:01 EDT Friday. It will last until player and owners can agree on a new collective bargaining agreement, one owners demand must give all teams a chance to profit. ''We had a great year in terms of the appreciation of our fans for our game. It just wasn't a profitable one for the owners, and it wasn't one that many of the smaller market teams particularly enjoyed or felt included in,'' Commissioner David Stern said. ''The goal here has been to make the league profitable and to have a league where all 30 teams can compete.'' The players' association seems unlikely, at least for now, to follow the NFLPA's model by decertifying and taking the battle into the court system, instead choosing to continue negotiations.

Transformers Opens Big

also made $5.5 million at sneak peeks on Tuesday, giving a total of $43.2
