All the money goes to goodell's house where his servants are currently filling up his pool with it...

It seems that they already are. Now its only a matter of time before all players are required to wear knee braces. They may even make kickers and punters wear them too.

I say we just put those inflatable sumo suits on all the players. Or maybe eleven bubble boys on each side.

Soon they'll use computer simulation of each game to avoid injuries all together.

Thus adding to the cost of our already expensive Kickers :)

Soon NFL will stand for National Flag football League

Those type of hits should be reviewable. Jenkins got fined to cover up the fact it was a bull**** flag. When a guy folds up it takes away the ability to hit the body. Only thing you can hit is legs or head, and since the head is illegal; go ahead and blow his knees out. Too many people are pretending target zones don't change from play to play. I'd just start taking out legs from now on.

So people can say "Look how dirty the Saints players hit" when we give a "cart-off" hit? People already say that crap and we hardly even hurt anybody.

What I see coming is more rules that you can't hit a defenseless player below the waste or something along those lines. They'll move the legal zone to above the hips, but below the head, no head-to-head, and the head can't move.

I agree, the owners will sell their souls and change the game drastically as along as the butts remain in the seats and they limit their legal liabilities. Even if the fans revolted and didn't go to games the rules will never revert back, so it's only going to go downhill.

NFL football is a multibillion dollar entertainment industry modeled around a sport.

Nothing more or less. Entertainment first, sport last.
