Players association would never agree to an overseas division

I dunno why he even says that silly shyt out loud. You're not wishing that into existence

Fans go so crazy for the game in new markets. You excitedly told all players not to go outside
Roger asks for ridiculous stuff and makes it sound legit, so he can get the players to agree to the shyt he actually wants.

Example - "Wayne Gretzky.....give me your hottest daughter, $15M and season tickets to whatever team I want." Gretzky says "you can have $4M and that's it."

All I really wanted was $1M in the first place but he doesn't know that. They'll give the players some weak azz concession in exchange for something worth wayyyyy more money.

TYRONE GA!
Nfl contracts should be fully guaranteed
If the players won't fight for it, why should we care

The smartest thing Goodell and the owners did was increasing the league minimum knowing the vast majority of players are on minimum contracts. If 75% of your roster is minimum cats, you got the NFLPA by the balls.

Median (Middle 50%) of players make 860k. Marinate on that.

NfL management is full of shyt. If they really gave a shyt about player safety the season would be reduced to 14 games.

More blowouts

Weak matchups

More injuries

shorter careers

Oversaturation

Roger is a clown, he’s always doing too much



Roger is just doing the bidding of the owners.

Owners don't care about shorter careers, parity ensures there are never too many blowouts.

They've wanted 18 games for a long time now, they've just been playing the long game, easing everybody in.
