I still watch albeit not as much..I think the NFL should allow people to watch whatever games they want.I'm in Fl, just moved here last year from NJ, when I got stuck with lousy Jets or my Giants..and when they're off or on a sun/mon night game, I ALWAYS got philly, washington, Dallas on the NFC game, and ALWAYS got NE or Denver on AFC games..
I missed almost all of L. Tomlinson's career, and so many other players..why did I have to watch Philly games when the Giants were off?!?! I'm sure Philly fans say the same thing, and Washington fans, etc..
in Fla the same thing continues, I had Pitt/Ravens and NE/Car game, along with the lousy Miami game..I'm just tired of being force-fed games I would never have an interest in anyways. I hate the Ravens, can't stand the Steelers..why would they show that game in the West Palm Beach area?!
I get the NE games, they're always good, etc..but enough's enough. I was a casual fan of Nascar until Jimmy Johnson just kept winning titles all the time..so you look at NASCAR ratings and viewership and attendance and it is down across the board , and has been for years now..and they mucked with the rules of the races, and NASCAR has no become a sport of primadonnas and princesses..it's not the old days with Awesome Bill from Dawsonville, Yarborough, etc..
and the NFL has become NASCAR..NE wins or is in the Big Game all the time.it's just boring to watch. I'd like to see a title game or SB without BB and Brady.or Pittsburgh.
the commercials are what they've always been they dont really bother me.the flags do.the constant reviews.
but what really gets me going is the endzone celebrations..OBJ in particular. the broadcasters have a policy of not showing those who run on the field..ya know, naked drunk guy running up and down the field as the fans cheer him on..but they'll show T.O. wipe his butt on the FG post. or OBJ propose to a net..I HATE these 'acts' that the networks seem hell bent on showing us.. Antonio Brown acting like a 3 yr old kicking a water cooler because he didnt get the ball on a certain play. and every single first down needs to have the player involved give the 'first down ' hand pointing gesture? enough already it's really old.think of something new..
many of the players are TV camera-aware. like A-rod was in baseball..just play the game, dont keep looking up at the jumbo tron..
and the pink BS for breast cancer.it's such a shameless plug for corrupt breast cancer 'charities'..google Susan G Komen..stop the pinkwashing..I've done many BC walks in Central Park and Jones Beach..lost a few family members to it..but these charities are just taking advantage of you, they're thieves.dont even get me started on why a male league, with mostly male viewers does NOTHING for prostate cancer awareness and it kills nearly as many people as BC does. it's just a commercialization of BC.it's such BS.I hate october NFL games with the pink this and pink that..stop the pinkwashing..

I dislike Goodell's take on force feeding games on us..we DONT care about London Football.or TNF football..how is it that the #1 sport worldwide bows to college football ( fridays and saturdays) , and MLB in October? put NFL on Friday or Saturday.take away Bama v. ND in primetime..
I watch a lot of college football now, it's more exciting, bunch of kids playing their guts out, big bands, high energy, no endzone celebrations, timeout after first down, etc..it's so much better in so many ways..
I hated the NFL when the Niners were winning with Joe Montana and Steve Young..at least until the Giants crushed them 49-3 in one playoff game, and Leonard Marshall nearly decapitated Joe with a hit that essentially ended his SF career..it was over.the cloud had lifted..
I need that day to come with Brady, Big Ben, etc..I like the new kids - Watson and so on..very excited about it..but I'm bored with the old guys like Brees.
oh I'll also add I'm not really impressed with the level of coaching in the NFL - I think it's the worst it's been in YEARS..Adam Gase?! cmon now. D. Marrone? puh-lease..
