Teams can't stay healthy for a 16 game schedule. This is a bad idea.

As much as I would love a longer season as a fan, I think the players would not be able to handle it. We'd see a lot more serious injuries.

So some owners want an 18 game schedule. Well this proves they don't care about players health & safety, just their bank accounts. Greedy fucks.

Well, the players are playing a violent sport for money and they know the risks, so the same could be said for the players.

But the players can't speak for the players if the players are injured playing other players. If the players would just listen to their players then everything would be fine... for the players I mean.

It would have to coincide with an increase in roster size. Otherwise the union wouldn't go for it.

Never thought of that, good point. But I still say an 18 games schedule's a bad idea.

14 games would be an improvement on the current length of the season.

Could be. But so's preseason.

Haven't been a fan of preseason for a long time now. Too bad there wasn't a way for only rookies & players on the bubble to play in those games. But all those 1st teamers need some live game action before the season starts.
