The reason why the NFL isn’t a world wide sport like all the others is it’s ads. I’ve been all over the world and whenever you try to bring up the NFL to someone out of country they will tell you they can’t watch because it’s one long commercial interrupted by small breaks of football. Which is honestly true. That is always the 1st gripe from anyone who says they can’t get into it.

I'd say camp body, but that isn't even really a thing, this year. Good for him, I guess. He never completely sucked, just never fit what we drafted him for...

...and before all of Ted haters hop on this, yes, that makes it a poor 1st-round draft pick.

Bengals gave up on Rodney Anderson's injuries already after he redshirted his rookie year and landed on the PUP to start this year.

I'm kinda surprised by that!

No whistles in the NFL officials will be using an electronic "whistle".

That actually makes sense.

I am intrigued. Do they hold an electronic whistle?

The Chiefs announced fans would no longer be permitted to wear Native American headdresses or face paint inside Arrowhead Stadium.

The decision comes after extensive talks between the team and Native American communities. The organization said "fans will be asked to remove any American Indian-themed face paint prior to passing security screening outside the stadium." The team is also "engaged in a thorough review process of the Arrowhead Chop." It's the latest in the NFL's reckoning with racial and social justice.

I mean, this is getting crazy, isn't it? I guess I always looked at the Chiefs as honoring Native American's, never saw it as a racist thing, more of it is their noble mascot. Guess I am wrong again.

Sounds like Minnesota won’t have fans week 1.

Good news I guess.
