How come? On a purely consumer level, we should want them to extend the season as long as they possibly can. Just means more football to watch.

I don't know. It just feels like the weeks in between take forever to go by.

I suppose, but as a fan, I'd hate to see more wear and tear on the players; shortening careers (and "dynasties"), further disrupting team chemistry, and the like. This isn't even getting into what the playoffs would look like with more and more 2nd stringers. Then again, the league can sissify the game and reduce injuries that way?

Oh, and no one will ever have a perfect season when it will take 21 wins to get there, as opposed to Miami's relatively paltry 17 wins. I'm sure Mercury will live to be 130 to remind us all of that.

Maybe you are a baseball fan then, because they play almost everyday

Yes, they are called knowledgeable football fans. Perhaps someday you will earn a place amongst them.

How about how fast the year has gone? When I changed my Pats calendar yesterday, I couldn't believe it was December already? Any way of making the next 4 days fly by?

This offseason, it's almost like Belichick is saying, "I'm never going to let that happen again."

Count me in that group. What's the point of seeing more football if more than half your favorite players are all injured?
