The NFL has no business promoting fitness

Anyone else get annoyed when they see NFL stay fit advertisements? Probably 20-30 players on every team have to be grossly obese just to play their position. If they slimmed down to a reasonable size, they'd be out of a job.

Also, afaik, the NFL provides very poor health care for former players who no doubt develop health issues from the physical nature of the NFL and the poor shape they were in when they did play.

They can certainly spend their money how they choose but I question the effectiveness of this program. Honestly, how many kids are going to exercise more because of this program? They would probably do better if they just picked out 10,000 kids and paid them to exercise. It's all about their "image".

    • I realize we were down 24 points when the Carolina Panthers touched the ball  for the first and only time  in the 3rd quarter...and they went on a 14 play checkdown drive taking the exact plays the Cards wanted them too and gave them overall.  and now you got folks cherry picking random plays asking how could it be garbage time if the Cards weren't in prevent on a 3rd down short yardage play or on the goal.  all you got do to is just watch the game live on repeat and not listen to the announcers.  
    • Just my opinion, so take it for what it's worth. I think Bryce decides who he's throwing to before the snap too often instead of reading what he sees post snap. Now alot of that is trying to influence the safety, but if the safety doesn't bite, he gets stuck and it turns into Bryce trying to make a play off schedule as the other options are gone. Cam did the same thing when Kelvin and Smitty were in the game. Bryce sees the field. He just gets a little stubborn sometimes. And that's when he gets himself into trouble. That and he doesn't trust guys to make plays on 3rd down. Instead of throwing to the open guy and letting them get the remaining 3-5 yards for the first, he'll wait until he can throw a guy to the markers. I don't think those physical limitations that keep being brought up is that real for him. Well... until he gets tackled and fumbles the ball at an alarming rate. But he has a strong enough arm, sees the field, and doesn't get injured by regular hits. 
    • Panthers win of course.  Like every Sunday I still have the hopelessly optimistic mindset  😎
