Who wants see 8-8 teams in the playoffs? I blame the owners cause they're greedy and money hungry. Goodell is perfect guy for them as he's their 30 mil a year puppet. Eventually the ratings will slip. They just can't leave the damn game alone.

Cuban is right, the NFL is going to violate the basic principle of "supply and demand" (it's amazing how many businesses/governments/jackasses ignore this law). You're a poon if you think the availability/quantity of your product leads to long term growth. Evolve, change, innovate, whatever the hell you want to call it, you have to do something to increase your market share to avoid a plateau or plummet. The NFL is trying to do this by raping the core of it's product. The NBA sucks and is definitely not the model but Cuban is on point. He definitely wants part of the NFL though..
