why the hell do nfl teams kickoff after scoring?

[muldoon]

...in the old days they were virtually the same and played under the same rules, now the NFL is so worried about their investments and making money the NFL is a fuckin joke

LOL.

Yes, remove the helmets, let these guys who are 350lb machines destroy quarterbacks and we'll be bailing Ryan Leaf out of the clink when our 3rd string goes down in week 2.

XFL tried to paint bullseyes on QBs - that panned out great.

The "old days" the players were 50% smaller. Physics alone answers any questions as to how long they'd survive in todays game.

Youd have to be a serious alcoholic to need a commercial break right after coming back from a commercial break just to kick the ball into the stand...the NFL sucks!

That said its still more enteraining than any of the other crap they have on TV today so we still keep watching

Im not talking bout the 1930s, Im talkin bout the old days like the 1990s, the game has changed so much in the past 10 years its gone from MMA to WWF

Just the last 3 years in particular where all these lawsuits and "new safe rules" have truly destroyed the game

Commercial breaks are when you flip around to check on the other games you're betting.

Yes. And I hate it when you're losing that game... that you just checked the score on. Then, that game becomes your priority game to watch... and the one you were watching becomes obsolete.

Its the american way. Its sad. Its good though if you need to grab a beer or take a piss and wanna stay live even if you have pvr.

Read the latest SI (Jim McMahon) and then see if you still pine for those glory days of the last couple decades.

This isn't about commercials, but what the hell happened with the Redskins Saints game? 3 minutes left in the 4th quarter and they have to cut to another game that just started? Retarded

Well, if your local market team is starting a game, by contractual agreement, they must switch to that game. This may be aggravating in some instances, but probably more will be annoyed waiting for their home team's game to start being shown while a game they care nothing about is still on.

Start pre-gaming/drinking during games..trust me, you won't care..

If I had a drink every commercial break I would die of alcohol poisoning

NFL sucks but then again what are u gonna do watch the Kardashians or whatever shit they put on the other channels?

NCAAF is the greatest thing on television

I would agree but I would also have to say that an offensive football game is alot more fun to watch than a defensive football game.

Great brutal sports competition...not this fake bullshit where they throw a flag everytime you sack the QB bc you did it too rough or everytime you nail a receiver bc you didnt let him secure the ball and make a move or whatever the **** this defenseless receiver crap is. Its actually more dangerous to be a defender in the NFL bc the offensive players can helmet to helmet you or do whatever they want and never get a flag, you actually see more defensive injuries than offensive nowadays

If you want to watch real genuine football competition watch college ball...in the old days they were virtually the same and played under the same rules, now the NFL is so worried about their investments and where to fit in 3 hours of commercials the NFL is a fuckin joke

Have you not seen the lines at the concession stands? I never want to miss much action, but after a touchdown (before the extra point) is the best time to grab a beer. You already know the extra point is coming and most of the time, the kickoff will be touch back. If you went during halftime, good luck watching the 3rd quarter.
