I'm sure the NFL will be around in 20 years but I doubt we'll recognize that sport.

Maybe they'll call it the National Flag League. No more hitting or tackling at all. The Rickey Jacksons and Ronnie Lotts will only be legends and memories of the way ball used to be played. Certainly superior athletes, coaching, and everything about the game now- except for continually more pussified rules. Look up some Jack Tatum video and enjoy when football was about hitting.

There could be a new league in the future that could challenge the NFL. One that institutes old school rules and hitting. It could be similar to the way UFC has supplanted boxing by highlighting what the sport is essentially about.

While I can't complain too much about all of the protecting the QB rules, because if Brees got knocked out we'd be done. But I don't know how safeties or DBs play with the rules they have about all this "defenseless" and "intent" nonsense.

Jack Tatum was an animal that should have been put down.

Suh is vilified by everyone, but he IS what the NFL used to be.

Perhaps the XFL was a few years before its time. There will be another league before long. The NFL is this back pedaling monopoly because it has no competition.

When I read your comments about the NFL becoming pussified, I thought about how analogous your comments are in regards to where our country is headed. Here is how I re-wrote them.

Maybe they'll call it the United Socialist States of America. No more limited government or individual liberty at all. The Ronald Reagan's and William Buckley's will only be legends and memories of when the United States used to be a super power. Certainly superior economy, military, and everything about the US gone- because of continually more liberal rules. Look up some WWII video and enjoy when US was about freedom.

There could be a new country in the future that could challenge the USSA. One that institutes the US Constitution . It could be similar to the way Hong Kong has supplanted USSA by highlighting what Capitalism is essentially about.

I'm as conservative as anyone, but this is retarded and really out of place in this thread and on this board.
