There is over saturation with all the games, the refs suck but there is something else, the play on the field is getting worse and worse each year. Maybe it's how college football is coached and the players it leaves the pros to field a team, maybe it's all the rules and how wacked they are in a contact sport now. I know people have said free agency causes parity... but the college ranks and free agency have left just one big mediocre product now called the NFL

Same thing could be said for the nba.

I watched LSU play A&M today. Regardless of opinion of their current season, they are still two of the premier college programs with top recruits and the game was a joke. I did not see great offense as much as I saw a laughing stock example of how not to play defense. These guys could not cover and they did not know how to tackle. I also noticed the rash of injuries on both sides when playing. I have watched football for sometime and hardly ever recall players being this fragile in a single game. The winners in football appear to be who sucks the least now and this is what the NFL has become too

The right has been hitting the NFL pretty hard. I have a lot of right leaning semi-pro facebook activists as friends,,, :p anyway, I see a ton of resentment and talk of boycotting the NFL. They (they being the people who circulate these things on the internet) seem to be fed up with the NFL's "liberal policies" and apparently the fact that they didn't kick Kapernick out of the league for his anthem stunt is tantamount to treason and worthy of a #boycottNFL

Not that I'm ok with people being stupid, I dont agree with Kapernicks methods, but people are sooooo dramatic about it that they cant see that if everyone had just ignored him, it would have gone almost unnoticed. I'm not going to let Pickles ruin football for me! :p
