Goodell: decision time approaching

RALEIGH, North Carolina - The time is fast approaching when the NFL must make a decision about canceling activities because of its labor dispute with league players, commissioner Roger Goodell said on Wednesday.

The league has the full intention of playing a complete 2011 season and holding its Super Bowl in Indianapolis, but Goodell believes the dispute could impact some decisions, including cutoff dates for holding events.

"We don't have a date (for cutoffs), but obviously that time is coming," Goodell said at a news conference in Indianapolis following the league's spring meeting.
