It's just so hypocritical. Talking about how the fans are tired of paying full price for preseason games as justification for an 18 game season. It's like damn, if only there was a way to not have fans pay full price for preseason games. Common sense solution, stop charging full price for preseason games. NFL owners solution, turn two games into full speed regular season games.

The real problem is money withdrawal. Owners have gotten so use to cashing in on those preseason games that they don't want to stop screwing the fans over at the register.

By the way can someone please explain this 18 game proposal that the NFL submitted recently? Because if I read it right on NFL Network it was that 11 and 12 would be 16 games and then the NFL Owners would decide on an extended season for 2013 and beyond. Please tell me I read it wrong. Heck please tell me that the NFL has given up on even pursuing an 18 game season. The fact that less practices and offseason contact drills is possibly being used as a bargaining chip for an extended season is sickening.

Haven't you assholes been presented with enough literature about how damaged these players are after they leave the game? Shouldn't less practice and contact drills be a given?
