meaningless games.

It's not like other sports where you want your guys getting in some game action against other guys. With the NFL you just want everyone to stay healthy. You don't run your normal plays and don't play your important guys. It's a waste of time.

  - Ownership cares because they charge full price for the preseason games and add that cash to the season ticket prices. They’ll never go away. -- nm - Volnelk 🍊 Aug 4, 05:51 1
    - True. Owners care, no one from the coaches to the players want to play these games. -- nm - Krusty Aug 4, 06:15
