a two-year strike may be necessary. 

Most of the players would cross their own picket line. They can’t afford to not play for 2 years. They wouldn’t strike for anywhere near that long

I bet close to a third of the players won't be in the league in two years (retirement, career ending injury, marginal players getting cut). You think they're going to give up two years of income that they will never match again on their lives? Good luck getting that passed by your voting membership.

Especially rookies and players on rookie deals that weren't first rounders.
