Golden days for NFL lovers (2 Viewers)

[Saint Jack]

Aren't college coaches ridiculously overpaid themselves? Every big hit seems to go down as targeting, as well. College has clear favorite teams, too.

I get where you're coming from, but college football isn't a great product either - and the NCAA is just as corrupt as the NFL is.

I’d say the NCAA is more corrupt.

Saints only play one day of the week and that's the only one I care about. Love my Saints but I think it's pretty much universally agreed that the NFL product is getting worse by the year.

No doubt - NCAA seems FIFA or IOC levels of corrupt

These definitely aren't the golden days. Quality over quantity.

The NFL is a poor replica of its former self. Been going downhill for a at least a half decade now.

Only watch Saints. NFL lost me, a lifelong fan of any game, after the bullsheet no call. No other games, no non-Saints playoffs, no Superbowl. Life is too short, go fishing.

Winning. Winning changes everything. When the team you support sucks and misses the playoffs for multiple years, it’s very easy to let the types of things you described dampen your interest.

I’m not sure about that. I like rooting for my team that has an uphill battle to win. There’s a sense of pride that goes along with the “grind” of it all. Having my team not win it all every year, only opens my eyes to other things that are of greater importance. If I rooted for a team like Alabama (they are pretty much the gold standard), then that football team would probably make me an insufferable human being if they didn’t win it all every year. Hope I explained that correctly. Honestly, me personally, I don’t like things that come easy. My entire life was one big struggle and the grind and hard work, helps me to enjoy small/large victories or accomplishments. I’m built different than most.
