    New NFL Kick-Off Rule Has Spoiled The First Play in Football

    What used to set the tone for the game's excitment and allow the crowd to cheer has turned into touchbacks regularly. I think the reason for this was due to advertisements wanting more exposure. It allows for quick commercial segments. The NFL is more about money than worrying about threats to player safety.

    agreed

    These guys get paid a lot of money and they know the risks. If you don't want to get hit then play basketball or soccer.

    The last thing NFL cares is player safety. The commissioner's job is to make money for the owners. How can a team like Dallas Cowboys or the Washington Redskins be .500 the last 20 years but the owners have quadrupled their money. Fans are like sheep.
