A lot of people aren't very open to change of any kind. We have quite a few of those types that think any change is an attack on them personally somehow. I generally see them as fragile and see it as a character flaw, but, there does seem to be quite a lot of people that see things like that. Funny thing is some of the same guys decrying the death of the NFL over this among other things, love the heck out of some college ball with male cheerleaders and all. Go figure. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the AFL couldn't run it out of business it ain't going nowhere None these other leagues have been ran well enough to be serious threats, USFL crumbled because of a certain moron who didn't know what the public wanted Sure they have had a small drop in attendance and viewers but no where near enough to destroy the NFL The lower attendance is due to average people not having money to afford steep prices to go to a game and people have moved towards online streaming services which aren't included in the viewers count The NFL might have lost 0.01% of fanbase over the Anthem issue but that slim percentage won't damage them when they make up plenty in sponsorship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be but I'm saying with way things are going they will screw up rules at college level as well The biggest problem has been the heavy lawsuits because of poor management of concussions and other football injuries which has lead to people calling for blood Maybe youth football should be done away with and have people not play until middle or high school and then do better injury management at all levels NFL has resources but these lower levels of play don't have that and most injuries pile up Middle school and high school is where so many injuries go unreported because of poor medical knowledge at those levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
