Americans more concerned about NFL lockout than government shutdown?

I don't know for sure which issue concerns Americans more: a possible NFL lockout or a possible government shutdown (or Britney Spears' infomercial for her latest song, "Hold It Against Me," which is causing quite a stir).

Football fans are a pretty passionate bunch. So I wouldn't be the least surprised if it was true that Americans are more worried about a possible NFL lockout than they are about a government shutdown. Indeed, while there is at least one website devoted to preventing an NFL lockout, NFLLockout.com, I am not aware of any similar sites calling on Americans to prevent a government shutdown, due to the current budget impasse. But do correct me if I am wrong.

But what do J-TWO-O readers think is the more pressing issue, a possible NFL lockout or a possible government shutdown? Or Britney Spears' video for "Hold It Against Me"?

UPDATED 11:04 A.M.: A failure to pay taxes has officially claimed its first victim, Nancy Killefer, who President Barack Obama had nominated to be Chief Performance Officer.

UPDATED 1:00 P.M.: They are dropping like flies! Per MSNBC, Tom Daschle has now officially withdrawn his nomination (in part because of the unpaid taxes issue and in part because of past lobbying efforts).
