No. I want a 40-game season, divided as follows:
NFL - 16 game season and 4 weeks of post-season culminating in Super Bowl
NFLSummer - played in Canada. 1 of 2 developmental leagues. 12 game regular season, 4 game post-season. Each developmental league fully mirrors the NFL, with the exception of the shorter regular season (playoff and championship structure identical.) Unis are the same, except for a sun or other "summer emblem" - maybe just the letter "S" - on each jersey and each helmet. Franchises go to the largest city nearby the "primary" city for each team. The Pats could have a team in Hartford, for example (I'd say Providence, but they'd end up fouling up Gillette before the real season starts.) Washington could have a team in Richmond or one of the 'burbs. The best NFLSummer starters matriculate to training camp for your regular NFL team. Championship is the weekend before Week 1, NFL. (And yes, it is a regular feature of NFLSummer that every team in the playoffs plays shorthanded, as the exodus begins. Cope.)
NFLSpring - NFLSpring is to NFLSummer as NFLSummer is to the NFL.
The draft is always what it's been - except that you can go out for the NFLSummer draft or even the NFLSpring draft, set at intervals after the REAL draft. No need for 16 gruelling rounds, like it use to be in the NFL. We stick with the current NFL draft format, and if you go undrafted, you might make a roster, or you might just... drumroll... go out for the next draft!
I'm sick and tired of football having to end. I don't want to try to adopt a team in goddam Scotland or somewhere. I don't want 12 men and 3 downs. I don't want a 50 yard field and eight guys on a team.
I want real life NFLesque football all goddam year round and I want my Pats all year round, even if they're summer Pats or spring Pats.
Oh yeah but keep the NFL season 16 weeks.
