NFL is a faded memory for me- the no-call last season was the final dagger in the heart. The product on the field is diluted and when you add politics, count me out.

The flags are brutal, the PI rule change sucks.

Still love the NFL but it feels like theyre trying to screw it up.

The NFL under Goodell has been an exercise in a league that refuses to get out of its own way.

It's happening to college too. Might as well go ahead and make it flag football and be done with it.

Not gonna lie...I've been watching the NFL more and more because there is still parity and competition in just about every game not involving a team trying to tank their season for draft picks. I will always love college football and will be a die hard Alabama fan until the day that I die, but college football has lost a lot of its luster with me because the sport, while national in scope, is centralized almost exclusively in the South.

The NFL is at least a national brand with all regions of the country caring because they know their team can win on any given Sunday. No one in New England cares when Rutgers plays Ohio State because they know they have absolutely no chance of keeping the game within 30 points.

The flags are just too much. I’ve tried to get back into it and I just can’t. The refs (a bunch of old white men coincidentally) constantly inserting themselves and keeping the players in check. Anytime somebody makes a play... oh frick no bring it back. Look at a quarterback wrong? Flag.

And the new PI policy is the most retarded shite I’ve ever seen from a rules standpoint.

Like has been said, they are trying to destroy football.

Not caring about your employees + not caring about your customers + not caring about your product + cash grab = NFL Thursday Night Football.

Everybody bitches about how they protect the QB's but a good QB is required to have a good offense. If you don't have a solid QB you get shite like what happened tonight.

Take the colors, traditions and pride for your schools away and you'd see just how shite college football is in comparison
