irrelevant statistic Pretty much every NFL team regarding the QB

yes, it is

How original...all black

I've had enough of the red helmets and red uniforms

was not sold out 72 hours before kickoff. Blackout rules in effect back then

well, if only 60K seats a lot won't be able to go anyway

does this jersey make me look fat?

that's more than ok, that's great. You said they gave you $100 credit?

if the owners revenue keeps increasing they have to pay the players. it's part of the CBA. Why is it greed when players ask for a lot of money? The owners take in billions every year. We keep watching and attending games, TV network fight to pay the league billions...there's money for everyone. The complaint should be the cost of watching and attending games for the fans

According to reports, the NFL’s upcoming contract with CBS and Fox prohibits the NFL Sunday Ticket from being offered at a reduced price, which suggests any streamer that obtains the rights to the package would likely have to charge extra for it.

I concur but guessing that option will go away with new steaming service. Will have to purchase Apple TV, Disney+ or Amazon Prime along with Sunday ticket. Not expecting any discounts from them

True but now I have to find a replacement for directv....I like watching live TV so Apple subscription alone won't do it. The TV networks and the winner of the Ticket bidding are the reason for the salary cap increases. Don't blame the players.

on field success in the '90s and was able to just go to camp and hang out at fences and watch.

as bad as directv is, with rumors that Apple will get it at close to $3B, we won't see any discounts or getting it for free. Will have to get Apple TV for $4.99 a month then whatever they charge for the Ticket....

Superbowl 25. I was there and still have nightmares

No, you're correct. However if the owners want an 18th game before CBA expires, they will get it. Of course it will cost them....

I don't think the owners want to wait 8 more seasons to add an 18th game

I understand all of this. I just said I don't like it

The NFL will not shut down for a full week

Good points. how is that relevant to my post? I don't think we were comparing bye weeks to the offseason

as a fan, 2 bye weeks suck. I remember when they did this in '93. I hated it

I agree it's possible but I think timing is interesting. Whomever gets awarded will have to be up and running quickly with a plan in place to sell it. People will need to sign up for Apple TV, Amazon Prime or Disney+, then purchase the Ticket. Probably not as difficult as I may think but it is a lot. Plus Directv has exclusive rights for one more season. They'll want money to give it up

They will announce a decision by the Fall to take effect next season. DirecTV still has exclusive rights for this season.

Kinda rolls off the tongue, eh?

It's only because the NFL wants $2B for the Ticket and DirecTV won't pay it. Only one's that will are Disney, Amazon and Apple
