    Yeah I couldn’t take the fucking NFL in general anymore. It became exactly like America: overhyped, pricier by the year while being worse every year, full of stupid drama, and obviously has its best years behind it.

    I mean, the biggest problem with NFL is that a team can realistically only play 12-15 games a year. In baseball, you play 10x as many games. Basketball, marginally less, but you can still run a season for six months, with games multiple times a week.

    So tickets can be cheaper and the sport can still be more profitable by year.

    The high impact sports are a bad business model. Everything runs downstream of that, since you need to compress more and more of your revenue generation into a tighter timeframe.
