You are trying to ruin the NFL for a second time in 2 years, this time for less than $2 million in a business worth 45,000% more than that (do the math).

This time you have sacrificed the safety of your employees and the integrity of the game you say you love only to satisfy your unfathomable greed and to feed your mammoth egos. Not to mention you have basically given the finger to each and every fan (i.e. your customers) that lives and dies to watch this game.

And yes, I know you're not done. You all are too old, rich, and out of touch to do otherwise. I also know that you feel like we're going to take it forever, just like the rapidly shrinking middle class of this great nation seems hell bent on doing, but we won't. Soon we will storm your stadiums that we paid for with public money, lock you in your luxury boxes paid for with public money, and pump in farts, reggaeton, and that dreaded hippity hop music until your cold, ancient, worthless hearts give out.

And don't think we don't know Ol' Roger isn't your toadie waiting for his masters' next command.

As a fan of the NFL I'd just like to say fug you. fug you with all my heart.

And this goes to old Mumble Mouth Jerry "Do I need to help you read a revenue chart, son" Richardson just as much as anyone.

I know the commish takes a ton of heat for his job (and most of it rightfully placed), but the media pinning this replacement ref issue on him isn't really fair.

This is totally on the shoulders of the NFL Owners and until the ratings drop, they could care less if a football game isn't properly officiated.

What if that was the Cowboys losing that game last night to Seattle instead of the publicly-owned Packers? As much as he is an ass, is he influential enough that he would have seen his team robbed by his own supposed greed, and start lobbying the other owners to get this handled?

Why not take the question one step further. If that game was Seattle @ Oakland or @ Philly and the Raiders / Iggles get robbed at home is everyone so comfortable with the outcome? Not only do you have an non-public team robbed but you probably have a far less forgiving immediate reaction in the stadium as well.

We can if / and / but ourselves to death but it shouldn't matter. That was an embarrassment and the general public isn't as stupid as the NFL seems to think we are. The novelty / comedic value of terrible officiating will wear off for the casual fan eventually (I hope).

Dear Refs,

I cannot for the life of me understand why you feel that you are entitled to a pension plan when you work part time for our company. Our ratings have not dropped, and I feel that you are costing yourselves more and more money everyday that you don't accept our offer.

Many of our full time employees do not receive a pension, and only a 401K and a match from us. The NFL may not be around forever, and if history proves to be cyclical we will not always be the top dog. You can reference boxing, baseball, Nascar, and the NFL for a little history lesson. We feel that if we sign bad contracts with you, the players, and the networks in the good times, they might bite us in the ass during the bad times that we all know will eventually come.

Many Towns, Cities, Counties, and States are being bankrupted everyday by ongoing legacy costs such as healthcare for life, pensions, and excessive retirement benefits that were promised when the times were great. We have no plan to bankrupt the NFL, however we do plan to move forward with or without you. We are a business, not a bureaucracy.

Thanks for your time,

The Owners

      Run Threat Rate -- is this good?

      By TD alt · Posted

      Actually we like to run more than most, and the dropoff isn't that drastic. We seem to be pretty much middle of the road. The Facons, Bucs, Browns and Bengals are the ones where running drops off markedly when they start trailing. Our line on the chart, like I said, is somewhat middle of the road.  As to whether or not if it's good or bad is anyone's guess by looking at this. I suspect people who like Old school football won't be upset at this at all. The thing is, we would have to know the game scripts and the situations, as running and or passing making sense is contextual. I know that I haven't necessarily been enamored with Canales's situational play calling. At the end of the day, I believe in using the run to set up the pass and the pass to set up the run, and trying to keep the opposition off balance, but I still believe that you should run it down their throats if they can't stop it.

      Because he's from Charlotte, grew up a Panthers fan, and could still make amazing money as an elite LG for his hometown team. And while I think he's a quality starting LT, he's not a Top 5 type of player either.  If he could prove to be a true elite LG, the money might not be that different than what he could make as a LT anyways. I'm not saying he will, but I don't think it's out of the realm of possibilities.
