Re: Random thoughts on the NFL season.
I think tv revenues have flattened out , ESPN is collapsing . Cord cutters , people angry with ESPN political garbage , etc. I was the first person in my small circle to dump cable or satellite , now there are quite a few who refuse to pay 200 bucks a month for TV. The NFL wants to add more weeks? For what ? They added… -

Re: Random thoughts on the NFL season.
Peyton sucked and was replaced (part injury/part terrible performance) for part of the season in his final year only to come back and basically not mess up the brilliant defensive performances. It worked. But he was done. As a Giant fan, I feel bad for Eli Manning - no Tate and no Shepherd and no clue from the head coach.… -
Re: Random thoughts on the NFL season.
The best ever football hit I ever enjoyed was a $300 free play payout at a casino. Free entry. You had to pick the most winners straight up from the pool of entries. Won it one week, by luck.

I read one time years ago, and I would have to believe that it's basically still true, that against the spread in the NFL, the favorite won 49.9 percent of the time, and the dog won 50.1 percent of the time. So if anyone believes they can make money against a bookie with a payoff of 100% if you win, but a payment of 110%… -
Re: Random thoughts on the NFL season.
High end QBs only come along once in a great while, Brady and Ben with the Steelers have been around for a long time, Brees was drafted by someone else, Luck retired early. The list of guys that were drafted and became good to great is pretty short. Rodgers is an exception in that the Packers got him when they had a HOF… -
Re: Random thoughts on the NFL season.
Agreed that NFL players make a lot of money, nothing new here. Maybe if the idiotic fans weren't willing to pay $43.00 for a hot dog and a beer the players would only make 8 million a year. Really, who's the dummy? Diggs and Thielen are "worth" what they are getting, if any person is worth 16 million dollars a year. The…
