This guy is systematically destroying the league.

They should go back to 16 games. There is a limit to what the human body can take. They should only have Thursday night games after a bye week.

The President's Day Super Bowl would be pretty cool, as long as it remained on Sunday with many of us having Monday off for the holiday.

Most of our presidents aren't really worth celebrating as it is so we might as well have something fun that weekend.

[Round Earther]

Players will earn another game check.

For Deshaun Watson, that’s an extra 2,705,000.

[Quentin Quarantino]

NFL is now not sport but a gambling syndicate bending the knee in fealty to the dollar, the euro and the fundamental transformation of America. Bah, humbug.

[vpintheak]

I only agree with you on the Thursday game thing. Apart from that, it’s a game and it’s 100% voluntary.

President’s Day is Raciss. It honors white slave owners! s/s/

We MUST honor MiLK Day. Martin (i.e. Michael) Luther King said so. /s/s/s/

[PAR35]

I’m not sure making a game that didn’t count now count is a significant change. Adding or subtracting games might be a significant change.

Hear, Hear!

Goondull can mull?
I'm impressed.
NE1 else feel like taking a knee?

It also means an approximately 6 month season. Means nfl football will be on all sports addicts minds for 1/2 year.
Hope nfl foot-er...passball dies a slow death....
Did you notice on first round...the picks were WR, QB, CB, OL, EDGE,. No RB, no C, no LB...change the game to 7 on 7, no tackling, flag football. Typical scores 84-81...lots of drunks cheering, and lots of post td, and pre kickoff advertising....yay..

[BatGuano]

Who cares?
With Pre-season games, they play 20 games anyway.

At least they are not tall, dark lesbians throwing a ball at a hoop.
I can’t care less what the NFL does.
I heard that the respect shown to Goodell at the DRAFT event was the ultimate.
He laughs to the Bank......
Why did I read this thread?
My bad..

Eighteen games is about four games too many. The human body cannot stand up to that sustained level of punishment. It wasn't so long ago it was a 14 game season... then 16... now 17. And now 18? There must be a limit.

[Rummyfan]

But as always with professional sports.... it's all about the $!

An old acquaintance once quoted me that .... professional sports is like professional sex: it has nothing to do with love, and it's all about the money.

[Chad_the_Impaler]

Make the Super Bowl best of three. That will bring in the money but won't inconvenience many players.

Super Bowl LIX-A, Super Bowl LIX-B, Super Bowl LIX-C (if necessary).

[TalBlack]

They better put the second bench in for these things or they’re gonna risk losing high dollar talent. Upside would be that some of those seconds may really pop on the field.

[Redleg Duke]

Just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

The NFL is dead to me, and I was a life-long Packer Backer from the ‘50s until Woke.
