Vikings tight end Visanthe Shiancoe has put into words the feelings of a lot of fans when it comes to the NFL lockout.

Shiancoe, responding to the latest round of news about the lockout, said he doesn’t want to hear anything until the whole thing is done.

“I’m to the point, man, I’m like, ‘Look, just call me when it’s ready,’” Shiancoe told the Minneapolis Star Tribune. “I don’t care about all this other stuff. I don’t care about any hypothetical dates. Just give me the date. That’s all I care about so I’m going to be ready to go. I’m pretty sure a lot of other people feel the same way I feel. It’s been a long, drawn-out ordeal.”

I’m pretty sure Shiancoe is right: A lot of other people do feel the same way. We’re hoping today is the day that the lockout really does end.
