I was enjoying the women's pro football league much more then the NFL but would've preferred smaller uniforms such as thong bottoms and pasties.Why the lack of fading lack of interest in the NFL?
a.) Too many teams and not enough talent to keep them all competitive? The NFL is talking of even expanding more with teams in London and Mexico City. Would there be more interest if we had fewer "stars" and they be really the 'cream of the crop'?
b.) No loyalty between players and teams, teams and players, teams and cities, cities and teams. In corporate America, we no longer see people retiring having spent 30 years with one firm. Companies are bout out. Recent college grads replace experience due to cost of overhead. Players prostitute themselves during free agency, looking for the highest bidder.
c.) Players are over-paid thugs. A baseball pitcher just signed a contract for $80 million. Are we tired of seeing people out of work, constant "news" organizations reporting unemployment numbers, and still seeing millionaire athletes and their entourages? \
d.) Has the move to fantasy football actually hurt interest in the various teams? Do people get more excited about specific players that a team or the game itself?
e.) Or, are we just tiring of the game and want to see something new... like guys in metal armor riding horses at each other with long spears in their hands.
