[QUOTE="Sky King, post: 691292, member: 7171"] Ambiguous or complicated rules are part of what's testing my mettle as a fan of the NFL. Having witnessed both the Glory and Gory years as a Packer fan (by birthright), I've been tempered. My affection for the team remains solid and always will regardless of their record. But I would be fibbing if I said the NFL game as a whole has gotten more interesting for me to watch. The product been heading downhill for years IMHO and I wonder how much longer the NFL can take the fans' interest for granted. I'm already being challenged on this issue and I sometimes wonder if others have the same concerns. The rules, replay challenges (last night's challenge for two lousy yards is a good example), and over-the-top hype regurgitated by the talking heads has made watching the game a (worsening) tedious bore. When I hear people suggest even more replay reviews are needed I cringe at the prospect. Four-hour+ games won't be very far behind. Think of all the additional silly insurance, Kay Jewelers, beer and pizza commercials headed your way. [/QUOTE]
