I don't think that is right about the lockout, because the owners contention is that they are in their rights to lockout BECAUSE the decertification was a sham. But if the union follows the CBA clause of 6 months then the NFL can't claim it's a sham, and the whole process starts over, without a lockout in place. The main thing it would mean is we just wasted this time in getting a deal done.

Well, they had to file the decertification in the court by 5pm that day the CBA expired. That's why they walked out 6 hours early. They are technically decertified as of right now.
