It's time to play the game

Two weeks between games and here it is, day 10 and the whole thing is getting ridiculous. Every year, the same ole shinola, trite reporting on trivial matters, wild opinions by lazy "analysts" and utter saturation to the point where you stop caring.

We can't even get a good discussion going here because we're all being drowned out by the incessant coverage. Everyone is in id mode, reacting with our reptilian brains to whatever monumentally moronic observation or silly stunt going on in Miami. Every day, I scan the posts, looking for a really good argument, and there's nothing but dreck (no offense to those who are truly trying to provide insight.)

Why not just play the game 1 quarter each day? That way we can dissect something meaningful and extract the maximum nonsense out of the whole affair. We can adjust Football to be like Cricket!

Anyway, does anyone have SOMETHING interesting to say? PLEASE!!
