    They really take that "No Fun League" thing to heart, don't they? :crazy:

    The NFL could knock on every NFL fans door, piss on their feet and still be the most popular sport in the US.

    Fucking love football (especially when the Blazers are playing like this)

    I will enjoy when the NFL implodes on itself. Horrible sport.

    This is another instance of Nate merely reading the headline and reacting as if the sky is falling. The Lambeau leap is fine. Having the game delayed twice because Jimmy Graham breaks the goal posts is not.

    I watched that Thursday night game and was pissed.

    Players have been dunking on the goal posts for years without any problems (Terrell Owens, Vernon Davis, etc).

    So one guy comes along and ruins it for everyone else? Why not just fine the shit out of Graham?

    I would be fine with throwing a player out of the game and suspending him for the next if the game is delayed.

    I just equate this to maybe one fatass player jumping into the stands and hurting a fan. Players have been jumping into the stands for decades, but the NFL would probably ban it because of the liability.
