Poll: Reducing NFL violence
 
The NFL wants to reduce the violent hits on gameday. Use whatever standard you want for "egregiously violent" but assume you notice something missing.

Of course we'll keep watching. Did fans quit watching when they banned clothes-linging? Did they stop when they banned horse collaring?

No. Life will go on.

Sweet, another thread about this subject.

Where's the "I'll keep watching but make jokes about the rules" option?

I'll keep watching.



But, as a 40 year old balding overweight male, I refuse to give up my right to comment on how they are wimps. I also refuse to give up my right to comment on the hotness of females.

I'll quit watching if/when it gets to a point where it's a complete joke.

They could eliminate 99% of concussions in the game if they made it illegal to come within five yards of any offensive player. Don't laugh, we're pretty damn close to that point as it is.

HOW THE FUCK CAN I WATCH FOOTBALL IF PEOPLE CAN'T KNOCK OTHER PEOPLE'S HEADS CLEAN OFF? THIS SHIT IS WORSE THAN FIGURE SKATING

MikeVic 10-21-2010 11:19 PM

I'd probably switch to watching a sport like bowling.

Pumpy Tudors 10-21-2010 11:19 PM

Can I come watch you play? And then you can go to your league bowling game.

MikeVic 10-21-2010 11:23 PM

And looks like Trout's son is trying out for some indoor football league:

Don't know why I'm searching about David Trout.

Greyroofoo 10-21-2010 11:23 PM

I'll continue to beat my trout but I'll start watching out for the helmet-to-helmet hits.

Found this on David Trout...

"Merf Trout (6’1 215, Graceland University) Trout, son of former NFL and USFL kicker David Trout who spent the 1981 and 1987 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers and 1983-1985 with the USFL’s Philadelphia Stars."

*edit*

Looks like he led the USFL in points in 1983! (pics included)

MikeVic 10-22-2010 09:28 AM

Trout > Herschel Walker.

USFL - United States Football League


Too bad there isn't a football video game that features the USFL.
