Having followed the saga of the Rams getting ready to play in the Coliseum I've learned that the NFL offers guidelines and suggestions. Things that have to be a certain way and things they want/like. But they don't come in and control a stadium and it's day to day maintenance.

Not an actual game but they were in control/ checking/controlling out the comm systems. Think about it , where are they (NFL) most at Risk in terms of The NFLPA... playing conditions which NFL totally controls.

So what you're telling me is when Reggie Bush sued St Louis for his injury he actually sued the NFL? Wow there's a trend going here with the assigning guilt on this.

Wonder if this will give the NFL fuel to march the HoF out of Canton finally and into Stan's billion dollar palace by 2020? I'm willing to bet it's been on their mind for a while now. Canton is too small for the NFL now.

It's all a ploy to start cancelling preseason games

I'm all for this. The biggest ripoff in all of sports is paying full NFL ticket prices for a glorified scrimmage. Preseason nothing but a money grab for owners. Players get next to nothing for playing.

They were worried Favre was serious about playing in the game tbh.
Blue font?

makes no sense....I wonder what the old field in Philly felt like? And they played 8 games a year on it...seams showing...cement underneath thinning padding... c'mon, now they're worried about safety...I bet that kicker last year is saying, now they're worried about the field...

Great point. As much as I'd like to bang on the NFL's priorities (or lack thereof), it really isn't their problem. Unless there're some minimum requirements I don't know about. Looks like more of an NFLPA issue to me.

In any case, it's still an embarrassment for Goodell imo.

This is embarrassing as hell to anybody associated with this game. Is this an example of our deteriorating standards? Seems nobody is competent much anymore. Damn, how hard is it?

I don't think the players give a shit. They're probably happy it was called off. Isn't this game the worst every season that nobody cares about?

I'm guessing that the paint company is not in the running to be: THE OFFICIAL PAINT OF THE NFL....They have official everything else.
