Don't You Just Hate...

[Crazy Balki]

This isn't really a question, but more of a discussion. A vent to get all of the offseason aggression out (Lord knows we need it).

Don't you just hate that football has the LONGEST break in between seasons?

- Baseball ends in late October and starts back up early April (about 5 months)
- Basketball ends in mid June and starts back up in late October (about 4 months)
- Hockey ends in mid June and starts back up in early October (about 3 1/2 months)
- Football (college in particular) ends in early January and starts back up in early September generally (EIGHT MONTHS)

And it's also shitty timing, because once Hockey and Basketball end in mid June, all we have is baseball to hold us down for June, July and August. I don't know about you, but I'd rather not have the center of my sports universe for a quarter of year be the White Sox sucking ass. Thoughts, ideas, rambling?

I hate that I'm watching NBC football broadcast and I hear absolutely jack squat about ND. No promo's, no interviews, nothing. Lol

Baseball is about 81 games too long

Baseball and soccer are both great for when you want to fall asleep on the couch.

Football is just as long as it should be.

The worst part of football season is that it's the fastest 4 months of the year. It goes by too fast.

Yup. Drives me crazy. Seems like basketball and baseball seasons just drag on for ridiculous periods of time. I still can't believe how expensive tickets to both can be given the fact they play multiple times a week.

College football goes from September - January
Hockey goes from October to late June
CFL goes from July to November

So I just gotta survive a week or two without sports then I get to watch CFL which takes me to NHL/CFB

Can't complain.

I think we should play 14 regular season games but each player should only be able to participate in 12.

Pro season should be 18 regular season and each player can only participate in 16

It would bring even more strategy and planning to the game and give more players the opportunity to play.

My dad either watches Golf or How It's Made.
