NFL rules are continuously modified in hopes of increasing big plays and MORE SCORING! Here in 2024 we're far too sophisticated to sit around for three and a half hours viewing a spectacle that yields a remarkable total of 12 to 15 points. If you follow the money 💰, it leads to advertisers who, in turn, insist on large radio and television audiences. Which begs the question: Why did the NFL decide to embrace an affiliation with sports gambling? Even MORE MONEY? The challenge today is trying to figure out how to elevate the offensive explosiveness of ALL the teams, because sucky offenses don't constitute must-hear radio regardless whether Kevin Harland is on the mic. The visual medium rendition is slightly less demanding on teams due to the 21st century state of instant replay. The TV crews can enhance the viewer's in-game experience with nearly endless instant replays that will knock your socks off! Seriously! They have high speed cameras everywhere blanketing all aspects of every play. Seriously. Seventy frames per second fast! Maybe faster. Cameras in a blimp, suspended cameras above the field, cameras in the goal line pylons, sideline cameras, endzone cameras, cameras in the rafters of covered stadiums. It's a camera extravaganza. We get to see every critical event from 17 different angles, frame by frame, 1/70 second at a time... yeah that's a catch, TOUCHDOWN!!! Plus, because they're digital video cameras that cost as much as your house, they can zoom in real tight so we can see whether that ball touched the ground or even if it loosely shifted when the reciever hit the ground. All of which has failed to rid the game of controversial missed and/or blown calls. But now they're seared into our brains in vivid detail where they start to crowd around Nate Wright getting illegally pushed to the ground by Drew Pearson (rat bass turd). Anyways... they made up rules to get more scoring they can sear our brains with so we'll watch the game and buy from advertisers with any money we have left after gambling. The only problem is some teams refuse to increase their scoring. They'll turn the ball over when they get too close to the endzone and play entire games to a 12-9 final score, just like back in the 50s & 60s. No bueno! Except for the Detroit Lions. Those guys are putting up 35, 45 even more than 50 points in a single game! If other teams pick up on that there will not be enough time to run all the replays in the scheduled time slot. But fans will demand to see all those replays and game telecasts could soon be extended to four and a half hours to accommodate all the slo-mo scores. Now that's a lot of entertainment! So stock up on your corn chips, salsa & pizza rolls. Skol! 😈😈😈
