    Short answer, yes.

    But don't bitch about the rules changes that make it a high-scoring shoot-out. After all, that's the same reason why futbol gets so many jeers on here...is because of the troglodytes who claim that 1-0 games are boring. It's the same kind of illogical double-speak that I hear from xbox fans all the time; "WiiU sucks (1080p capability somehow doesn't matter), and PC is just too expensive (nevermind the smartphone you're using).

    The minimum equipment required, the legions of medical data regarding life-altering injuries, etc...these will all haunt NFL. I know of no such medical documentation about severe head trauma from years of playing futbol.

    Besides, aren't we done yet with sports that wear tights? Baseball did away with kickers years ago. Basketball swapped to shorts that don't show low-hanging nads. Football uniforms are still GHEY.

    and the fans will be meeting up before games to fight and kill each other. mass riots after games in arenas and hits will be put out on players, coaches and refs.

    Look again. Soccer players brains take a beating from years of headers and head to head collisions on attempted headers.

    The NFL just cant compete with college football and I refuse to give it my Sundays.

    Anybody watching this Steelers Ravens game? Just make the game two hand touch and quit keeping score. Make all uniforms pink for breast cancer and give every one a SB ring.

    Not watching out of anger at myself, forgot to set my fantasy line up before this weeks game...Left Forsett as my RB2, and Daniels on the bench (who is currently killing it.) Now I have to hope that Antonio Gates goes off against Seattle (not happening.) Ugh.

    It's effing pathetic. The call against the Ravens for the hit on Ben in 1st, the non call for Brown getting hit in the head, the call against Troy for a "hit to the head" that was clearly to the shoulder, the call against Mitchell for a "hit to the head" that was again to the shoulder, and now a phantom facemask call.

    You know the hit on Ben didn't bother me that much after I saw the replay but the non call after that and every thing else you said pissed me off.

    Same hit but no call, just sucks
