SPECIFIC reasons the NFL now sucks
Posted on 9/20/15 at 7:11 pm
Posted on 9/20/15 at 7:11 pm
I'm curious because I know I'm a Saints fan and, therefore, I am biased. I want outsider perspective. The best reasons I would give:
1. Roger Goodell's brand of justice
2. You can't touch a quarterback
3. Proposing things like London teams, 18-game seasons, and Thursday Night Football "for the fans" when fans don't want them
4. Strongarming networks into burying negative stories like the ESPN/Frontline concussion story, or punishing Keith Olbermann for slamming Goodell on Ray Rice
What else?

I have ZERO interest in NFL football, besides Tom Brady.

Just me, but part of the reason I could see it coming across as more boring now is Fox's production. It's terrible. Very muted sound.

Yes.

Losing a season for no reason tends to do that.
But based on page 1 on this board, I'm not alone

I don't think it sucks but it's much harder to watch when they won't let me watch whatever game I want.

I would much rather have a game on Thursday Night than not have one. The Broncos-Chiefs game this past Thursday was awesome.

I'd rather Friday night

Fantasy football outweighs most of that

You only think the NFL sucks because your team sucks.

I like TNf.

That's a very valid point. I just meant the crowd saying no Thursday Night game is better than having one. It certainly does not provide negative viewing value.

I sat in the saints game today and legit have been contemplating not renewing my tickets. Not because of the on field play, but because of all the fricking commercial breaks, insane prices for beer/shitty food and listening to people talk that I don't want to hear. Plus the music they've been playing is atrocious.

Penalties. Especially defensive penalties.
Defensive players are hamstrung by the rules and it seems that every time a defender makes any type of good play a flag is thrown.

Agree, NFL is just too glossy as well.
Posted on 9/20/15 at 7:24 pm to lsutigers1992
Add to all the flags & reviews that it's carpet-bombed with ads at every turn. Even when they return from commercial, you get more graphics and Dick Enberg pimping Big Bang Theory or some shite. Unless it's a stand-alone game I can only deal with Red Zone these days.
