I don't think it's the rule changes that are "ruining the game." I think what's ruining the game is all the hyperbolic whining, bitching, and handwringing from fans who just want to see guys get blown up unnecessarily—and then call players pussies when they get hurt.

And fantasy football. Definitely fantasy football.

By the way, if you have such a hankering for seeing guys get the shit beat out of them, UFC 205 is coming up next weekend, and it promises to be one of the most amazing MMA events of all time. If you happen to be in the area (Philly), I'll be happy to buy you a beer.[cheers]

The only games I will watch in their entirety are Packers games and even they are getting to be a struggle.

He was flagged for a blow to the "head or neck area." In real time and on replay, it looked like a good call to me—by the letter of the law as written in the rulebook. Whether "head or neck area" should be the standard by which these calls are made is obviously a matter for debate.

How? Maybe it's a penalty because he shoved Ryans own shoulderpad into his facemask lol.

Datone is playing better. It's good to see.

This position change has helped him.

How?

I'm saying if you can't see that the crown of Jones' helmet was almost at Ryan's chinstrap, you're blind. Again, whether that should be the rule is a matter for debate.

TheKanataThrilla (26-Apr) : Sam Howell to Vikings...guess no Aaron

Martha Careful (25-Apr) : No thanks. Not a dependable guy to be in the right place and run the right route. Dumb as a box of rocks.

Zero2Cool (25-Apr) : Losing 2nd round pick for a one year rental, not ideal. Especially a headcase.

TheKanataThrilla (25-Apr) : Pickens for Jaire may be interesting. Definitely not sure we want Pickens long term.

Zero2Cool (25-Apr) : NO NO NO NO NO NO!!1 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
