One event that won't be wiped away due to the NFL lockout: Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Aug. 8. The day before, Aug. 7, the Rams and Bears are scheduled to play the first preseason game of the year but if the lockout wipes that out it won't have an effect on the Hall of Fame ceremony the next day in Canton, Ohio.
