We learned that grown men drink and cry when the Huskers are denied a chance to restore the order of CFB with a new coaching staff.
Yeah, a handful were trying to downplay it hoping for the best instead of planning for the worst. I told a lot of people and everyone in my family on Friday that our game would get cancelled. I've never been blamed so much for something I don't control lol.
I learned that having a game that didn't come to fruition sucks. It makes waiting for this Saturday that much harder since we saw nothing and get no info on how our "first" game went.....
You are seriously holding a grudge against NFL players going back over 30 years? I don’t get when people get upset about how much $ pro athletes make. These players are the best in the world at what they do. I have the belief that the best at what you do deserve to be rewarded that way.I quit watching the NFL after the second players strike.
Also the owners make money hand over fist. Why shouldn't the players get a part of that?You are seriously holding a grudge against NFL players going back over 30 years?

I am with you! I don’t get the hate for the players who are on the field, making the product for the owners.Also the owners make money hand over fist. Why shouldn't the players get a part of that?

I agree that sports could be close to a collapsing market, but the NFL had the vast majority of most televised events/shows during the last television season. Sports rights are the one thing that seems to be worth paying for by the TV networks. Now it may be a bubble currently, but I don’t get why there is a bunch of negativity towards players. NFL players have an average career of 4 years. Their peak earning years are over by their mid to late 20s. They are part of the most popular sports league in the United States. If the market is there to earn what they do, they deserve it. I am not going to begrudge them because they make way more money than I do.At what point are they rewarded? 5 mil, 50 mil, 200 mil? To the average fan, there is a difference between 5 mil and 50 mil. To the average player, it's merely a question of how much more they got vs what someone else got. That's the disconnect, the fan compares it to buying power in the real world, the player only compares it to relativity. It's apples and oranges, except the latter relies on the former, and the former is going bust. Attendance is steadily decreasing, cord cutting is increasing. Eventually it hits a point where the cultural impact of sports deteriorates to the point the market collapses entirely.
