I suspect it will be the same this year, I'll spend three months following the Braves real close and then I'll be like meh, fuck these guys. Aside from that the NBA finals and March Madness are really the only other things I have to look forward to when it comes to sports. Life without Football is a dull existence indeed.

Yeah, I once had an idea that the NFL should switch to playing every other week. So each team would play once every two weeks but alternate so there was NFL football each weekend. That way the players play the same number of games and get more rest in between AND the season last twice as long.

Wonder how that type of thing would actually work out, players getting more actual rest between games might actually help them even if they do have a longer season.

Would be awesome to have 34 weeks of football
