A lot of these people aren't well off enough to sustain themselves for a while.

Short term, yes. Long term, maybe not. A lock-out, and more importantly the anti-trust legislation being presented against the NFL, could have a serious impact on how the NFL does business with all of these other entities, which may end up benefiting the workers in these industries in the long run. Especially apparel makers/vendors.
