It's hard to figure out which sucks worse what the game has evolved into or what our franchise has evolved into.

One thing you can count on there's bean counters in both entities and the league is constantly vigilant to make sure their televised games are competitive and certain franchises don't go down scope especially if they have a bunch of televised games coming up.

Just imagine if the Packers lost to the Cowboys what the ratings on Thursday night football would have been.

It's all about the money and Jerry is making a boatload and has proved that winning Super bowls doesn't really make him more money.
He can have the most valuable franchise and just tease the fan base continually into believing there's a chance

Combined record of five best teams of that time period.

1950-1969 62.0%

1970-1989 63.7%

1990-2009 58.6%

2110-present 65.1%

There is just as much separation between the haves and have nots as there ever was. Great organizations with focused ownership and management come up with strategies that give them an edge over competition whether that is cap mathematics, free agent strategy, or draft evaluation. They find a way.

Any given Sunday, is not a cliché.
We just have to go out every single week and play the best we can and hope you have a little bit of luck on your side.
I thought I would never use the word luck in a football game. But it seems that’s the NFL.
The team is not garbage, are quarterback doesn’t suck .
What sucks is, the game is not 100% in your control anymore.
We’re definitely capable of beating the Vikings, and anybody else in this league.
The issue is, so can anyone else.
Tell that to Tom Brady and Bill Belichick

There was a time when society could neither understand or accept homonyms, but I would generally like to think things have progressed of late. Maybe not.

I don't know about homonyms.....not that there is anything wrong with that.

Oh they got the parody thing going for about 25 years or so!
I've been hearing about parity since 1978, when they expanded the schedule from 14 to 16 games and added 2 playoff teams. A couple of 9-7 teams made the playoffs, and in 1979 a 9-7 team made the NFC Championship game. I heard the word "parity" for the first time and had to look it up in the dictionary. Coincidentally I had just learned the word "parody" a couple of years before that when SNL began, and I had to look that up too :)

I've been hearing fans talk about parity for 44 years now and everyone says it like they are the first one saying it.

We have a bunch of Leslie Gores' in here: "It's my parity and I'll cry when I want to, I'll cry when I want to, you would too, if it happened to you".

There is so many flags called and not called at this point I wonder if it’s about a fair game or one that’s getting tilted for the point spread. But what ever. Sorry..

It's a mosh-pit of mediocrity
an autocrat's democracy
a competitive hegemony
a network's conspiracy
