So who else is like me and does NOT want a 17th game?...

Yes, I know it’s going to happen. Just prefer it not.

But the one that I really, really hope never happens is expanded playoffs.

I agree with you, but afraid adding playoff games is going to happen sooner or later. The owners are to greedy for it not to happen.

It doesn’t really make sense to have a 17th game. With the number of teams in each division and the number of teams in the league, 16 games makes perfect sense for scheduling.

It makes sense in that it puts more money in the owner's pockets.

Yeah I’ve been wondering what’s gonna happen there too.

I hate the odd number, I don’t like that record books are almost certain to be completely re-written, and above all, it just doesn’t make sense for player safety.

It’d be one thing if they’re adding a bye week, that may actually be a positive. But if not, it’s just that much more of a beating for the players to endure season to season.

They start changing too many things and they may do more harm than good. The old saying should hold true here, if it ain’t broke...

And a helluva lot less effective too.

If you have the kind of pain that requires Oxy, weed aint gonna cut it.

Weed is not a pain killer. Motrin is more effective than weed.

Weed is a put your mind past it pain management. No body has the expectations it is going to make them pain free.

It's also for those not looking to become a junkie on opiates.

I think the 17th game is dogshit. Players can already barely make it through a 16 game schedule and we’re gonna add another game? ****ing ridiculous.

The right strains are very effective for pain management.

If they add a 17th game they need to increase the roster size and increase the number of active players you can have for a game.
