Heinz Field (home of the Pittsburgh Steelers) cost $250m to build in 1998 dollars. It opened in 2001.
Someone explain to me why the NFL can’t build their own frigging stadiums if they can pay for five years worth of this frigging pig. I’m all ears. Why did the NFL need welfare to stay afloat?
I am so frigging mad about this ... anyone that supports that league needs their head examined. It has become nothing more than an unwatchable version of “The Running Man”. WWF wrestling seems more realistic than an NFL game show.
Please, stop supporting this league if you haven’t already. You’ll find that there is so much you can get done on any given Sunday if you’re not wasting 3 hours or more of your life watching this trash.
Taxpayer-funded stadiums + felon/thug players + CTE + franchise relocations + Kaepernick + kneeling/disrespect + ESPN buffoonery + sponsor antsiness + attendance/viewership caving = NFL death
Can’t come soon enough.
Joe Girardi & John Farrell win & get fired.
Goodell presides over the train wreck of the former king of sports.
The NFL is a socialist model. This is what happens in socialism.
Who knew that grovelling paid so well?
Goodell must have a lot of dirt on the owners. They sure act like he’s the boss and they’re the workers.
There won’t be an NFL in 5 years......................
As Mr Spock would say "most curious,Captain".
Didn’t even notice your reference to Star Trek! I went with Spock rather than Bones! ;-)
The NFL is in decline. Goodell has done a terrible job.
...
Recently he’s done a terrible job. Before that he brought a lot of money into the NFL. No ethics or morals, but a tremendous amount of money.
The owners are going to regret this.
Rewarding failure.
It will be like boxing, a niche sport for desperately poor kids. Which is sort of how it started.
Not too long ago, the heavyweight champ was the most famous athlete in the world. Today, even knowledgeable sports fans have no clue who he/they are. I sure don't. That happened in a generation. It can happen to the NFL.
Some years ago I remember Condoleeza Rice telling an interviewer that she would like to be NFL Commissioner after her government days ended. That might be a solution to the mess since most of the black athletes grew up doting on Momma/Grand Momma and would be more likely to respect her than a beefy privileged white Jewish guy. I doubt if she’d take any crap either.
Fools.
“They clearly don’t give a hoot what the fans think”
They think they’ll make up the numbers by attracting more women and liberals as viewers. The idiot doesn’t realize that both of those demographics hate the game. While the NFL saw an uptick in women viewers, it *will* decline as more concussion information is released.
I hate the NFL. I really hope someone comes up with a league to compete against those frigging disgusting, vagrants.
I think they’re rewarding him for keeping his yap shut.
Hahaha. Typical LIB move: self-loathing leading to suicide. Hahaha. Bye...Bye you anti-American losers.
“would be more likely to respect her than a beefy privileged white Jewish guy. I doubt if she’d take any crap either.”
They’re already programmed to hate her. It would never work.
Can you tell me who won the NBA championship in 2017?....................
We could see the meteoric rise of the National Powder Puff League or the NPPL.
