The NFL game has become stale with so many penalties and commercials. The announcers hype up every replay like it was the greatest close call that ever happened. Their overselling it and it's very noticeable.
I agree but don't discount the abundance of rule changes that have come in the Goodell era. It's not the same game it was for anyone over 30 who grew up loving the NFL. Stale is a very good word to describe the NFL for older fans. Blatant penalties not called, obvious catches now incompletions, no competition in the AFC, unequal and arbitrary punishments, and the NFL investigating things the police already cleared. It all makes for a stale experience compared to what the league was.
