And they want to add 2 games to the current 16 game schedule.

It's ridiculous. The NFL season is already too long. It basically starts with the training camps in July and then preaseason games in August. The Super Bowl is in February now. They did a good thing with having the Pro Bowl the week before the Super Bowl though. But even with the Pro Bowl, they should just announce the teams and cancel the game itself or have a 30-min touch football game.

I agree! The Pro Bowl is a farse - love your “30-min touch football game” idea.

The NFL is strictly about money. That's why there was a game played Christmas night on the NFL Channel. If Goodell had his way, every game would be on the NFL Channel and we'd be paying $20 per game (with commercials).

Here's a good idea: no penalties, no substitutions.
