mark6sanchez Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Due to the overwhelming Greed of the NFL owners Ive canceled the NFL ticket this yr even if the comeback tomorrow...I don't watch the NFL network, why watch another list show LOL??? I don't click on any NFL sites except for this one occasionally to vent. clicks = $$$ No EA Madden 12 this yr... due to the NFL's greed they give EA exclusive rights which = bad bad game that hasn't changed in 5 years..plus EA/madden incandescently sabotage the Jet teams every year ...Jets been in the championship games 2 years in a row and have a rating of 89 yet nobody uses them because you can't win with the Jets year after yr. The NFL cares about money 1st and the fans last. Not my few bucks this year NFL, NO way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachEY Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Take that NFL owners! Your arguments over 9 billion dollars has now cost you somewhere between $200-500 of mark6sanchez's money. I'm sure they'll be quick to rethink their stance now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJ667 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 actually Madden 12 is coming out. Though I could care less. Football games haven't been any good since NFL 2k5. The nfl dictates way too much of what is put into the game too. I hope all those suckers enjoy their 30 minute lecture of the dangers of concussions...

Its just that things have been so slow that for some reason your last great rant about the NFL sunday ticket got stuck in my head. Like I said I was just eagerly awaiting the sequel. I have to admit though, I was expecting a bit more than just a tirade on EA sports and why the Jets aren't rated higher. I think you could have done better.

I admire that you canceled it actually... I'll probably get my fantasy teams and everything too. It, at the very least, makes the workdays go by quicker. And then I kind of have to watch games on Sundays since that's really the only way to reliably do well in fantasy leagues. I won't pay for any of it however, outside of cable bills for ESPN. Really I should cancel that too and just stream everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark6sanchez Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Im 57 been thru NFL strikes before this is the worst...NO reason outside of plain GREED by the owners and a total disregard for the fans...I hope to find somewhere online a site to watch what Jet games are not on my local Upstate NY tv schedule ...most games will be on my locals but ...Ill look for the few other games not on my locals online with no regrets since the NFL don't mind robbing the public with PSLs, rising pay cable and satellite costs and using the fan base as a cash-cow to drain. That's sports today the bottom-line which is why we watch World series baseball games being played in November in the snow, 11:45 at night with the kids sleeping and working adults with toothpicks keeping their eyes open. P.s. if anybody has a hint of a site I can watch games online send me a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barcs Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Both sides are being greedy, it's not just the owners. I wish these guys would settle this crap already. They can bitch over their millions to someone that gives a ****. Damn, if even had 1 million I'd be happy and wouldn't complain about sh*t like that.

JetsFanInDenver Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Take that NFL owners! Your arguments over 9 billion dollars has now cost you somewhere between $200-500 of mark6sanchez's money. I'm sure they'll be quick to rethink their stance now. Because we all know that its only one person in this country that canceled the NFL ticket! Its a market where even right now people are ready to spend a fortune to follow their NFL team. But i wonder how long will that last as slowly but surely people are being stretched thin financially and on the other hand see that professional sports like NFL has become a money gouging where they are the ones being taken for a ride.

But question for a somewhat well off person with kids would be....Would you rather send your kid to a college with the 80K plus any earnings on that amount (interest, investment income) OR rather just spend the money on football all through those years and let the kid fend for their own self ?
