A 4 game preseason is just unnecessary and it's in place for one reason. The money the league is making off it. The league could make the necessary changes if they really wanted to. Problem is they don't want to. |

I agree, if the league wanted to make the change they could. Of course that assumes the players union would go along with the plan. That would be the real trick. |

Re: Random egotistical observations
But wouldn't that mean then that that's an extra two regular season games (games that count) that Portis and Springs are missing?

Re: Random egotistical observations
I had a player in Madden named Rock Stone.
Tell me that's not awesome. |

Re: Random egotistical observations
Preseason may not be important for someone of Portis' stature, but it's certainly important for the Mike Espys of the world. Without preseason, is there Brian Mitchell?
I'm not sure the games is as big a deal as all the OTAs, and minicamps, and two-a-days (though the Redskins hardly did any). At least that's what I heard Mark Schlereth say.

Re: Random egotistical observations
If I ever have a son I plan on naming him Heisman and forcing him to play like he's the next Todd Marinovich. Little Heisman Cannon will take the world by strom I tells ya!

Re: Random egotistical observations
i agree with the sensible writing wisdom of matthew. as much as i think shockey is an asshole, what he said about the whole thing was right on the money. 2 a days and 4 preseason games are outdated. back when football players took jobs in the offseason and came to camp out of shape, all that was needed. now football is year round, everyone is in game shape all the time. that stuff is mainly for the coaches
