On ESPN's "Sports center" on Sunday night in an interview with Sal Paolantonio, Lewis - who was came to as one of the three most influential players in the NFL, along with the Indianapolis Colts' Peyton Manning and the New England Patriots' Tom Brady - referenced the theory of a canceled 2011 NFL season. The main scourge according to Lewis? Pride.
"We really got to remove pride, seriously," Lewis said. "Come on, there's no other reason the issue is going on. That's why I don't get into worrying and a lot of all that other stuff because it takes away from life itself. Man, there are people who are really struggling - for real. There are real struggles out there."
Lewis said a lockout would impact more than just NFL players.
"What we're going through right now, we're affecting way more than us," he said. "Too many people live through us. People live through us. Walk in the streets the way I walk in the streets."
And according to Lewis, one of the big results of lockout would be an increase of wickedness, which he says will come in the form of more crime.
"Do these researches if we don't have a season - watch how much evil, which we call crime - watch how much crime picks up if you take away our game."
