Yeah, this. :)

Why? It's our love of the game that wants it protected. Too much of a good thing is not healthy.

It's not too much for everyone. Being on the road most of the time, I don't get to watch nearly as much. No MNF or TNF.

Great take. Comparing guns to NFL is a perfect analogy. No matter how many innocent lives are taken, the gun advocates will say it was the innocents' right' to die.

I'm not sure I've heard anyone put it that way.

Cuban is complaining about oversaturation while NBA plays like every single day!

I find myself less and less interested in the NFL every year. It's directly related to the Commish and Owners constantly changing the rules. I can't even sit through an NBA game...whether it be the first one of the year or game 7 of the NBA finals.

Well, that's a good point.

I wish Mark Cuban would do his part to save the NFL by buying the Chiefs and then getting to vote as an owner. Certainly a win-win... #****TheHunts

While I was never interested in the NBA, I'm having the same problem with the NFL. I blame it on the changes in the game and the business, but in the back of my mind I also kind of wonder if I'm just hitting a satiation point due to age and experience. I've watched probably close to 1,000 NFL games in my life, and maybe that's enough.

But I'd prefer to blame the changes in the game and the business, so I will.

I watch the NFL differently than I used to. I don't really have a favorite team anymore. I just like good games.

I think we're all there, and I think it's always more than one thing. Sure, the NFL is finding ways to appeal to non-NFL fans, and that might be their demise IMO. But I think "life" has gotten more difficult over the past few decades, at least for many of us, and there's no way football can be all-consuming to most. Perhaps it's just because I'm 50'ish, but I've noted that kids (my own included) have 1-10th the interest in football that I grew up with and didn't have a team local. Perhaps it's that most of us expose our kids to SOOOO many things these days (and that's good), but I think that deep-rooted desire for football isn't what it used to be across all age-groups.

And I agree that saturation might be part of it too. Then again, I live in KC and our team is an epic fail in terms of "success" compared to others, so maybe it's just a local thing. I wonder how consumed kids in Seattle or S.F. are since they're teams seem to have down years, then rebound with deep runs in the playoffs (at least).

So I don't know, but with the way this franchise seems to always find a way to let its fans down, I'm not surprised that the NFL isn't a top priority.

He called into the DP show just a little while ago and said he couldn't afford an NFL team. Dan asked him if he would want to be a part of one and he said if it were before he had kids sure, he would go after it. But not now with 3 kids and everything else he has going on he doesn't have the time.

I tell everyone I'm just as big of a fan to the NFL as I am the Chiefs. Not that I like the rest of the AFC west as I do the Chiefs. I just love football. I watch all their games, even if it's a crappy Thursday night matchup. I haven't missed a game in 40 years that's on prime time/Sundays. I have 3 TV's in the ManCave hooked up to Sunday Ticket. I've started watching a lot more college the last 2 seasons and have really come to like it now too.

Bring on more football. :thumb:

Welp, kids are expensive!
