Yeah i know people dont like change. If they said they are creatures of habit and dont want anything new messing with their feel then ok, i can understand that. But when you say it cuts your hand and screws up your throwing motion, then i find out the same shyt has been used in high school and college then i have to question where were these complaints then. Am i to believe that cut fingers and a screwed up motion are things you just have to deal with at the high school and college level? I dont recall my fingers being cut when playing ball in high school.


They're very much different games. I'm almost certain that most NFL caliber qbs probably have more pass attempts in one season than they had their entire college career.

Plus....they're NFL players and have a say unlike HS and college.

Also the ball is different as in weight and size. Leather laces are have a better grip compare to synthetic. I see why qbs are complaining.

I agree with you about not fukking with the on-field product, that's the biggest transgression.

Just to me as a consumer, the prices of jerseys piss me off. I know I am not purchasing nearly as many as I used to, just because the price is

Ya, as a consumer, I get being pissed about rising merchandise costs....I just have a "can't knock the hustle" type attitude.

If the populace is willing to pay $100 for a jersey, I can't knock the league for selling it to them for that price. :manny:

Yeah but in that thought process, can you knock them for hustling the refs and the ball?

It's the same idea. Get away with as much greed as you can

FOotball seems to be reflecting any big corporation we see everyday. Dudes will try to skim every which way in order to save a buck for their bloated pockets.

This shyt is getting outta control.
Yup. The bigger an organization gets they have to hire more levels of useless people who have to prove their value by coming up with different ways to fukk with their customers...

Don't kid yourself, the NFL is an unstoppable Giant, people will be disgruntled but always come back.

Fantasy Football alone is a reason why the popularity of the NFL wont die, I could list you about 50 others too


fantasy football is stoopid.

that is why they make madden.

i see no use for fantasy football.

unless you are handicapped and can not operate a sip and spit controller.

fantasy football, is for dudes to goof off at work.
who are to mentally and physically challenged and think they are to grown to buy a xbox or ps3.

who have poor eye and hand coordination.

Nah, it's not the same idea. The same idea would be selling ad space on the ball and ref/player uniforms...it would be corny, but really wouldn't affect the quality of the product.

What they're doing with the ball and refs IS affecting the product. It would be the same idea as if instead raising prices to increase profits, they used cheaper products that caused jerseys to fall apart and shyt.
