NFL is being stupid and greedy

This is another colossal mistake by the NFL. The first mistake was pulling out of the collective bargaining agreement. The owners didn’t think 40% of Billions was fair. So now they will cause a work stoppage in two years.

This is mistake #2.

Both of these idiot moves the NFL closer to resembling MLB. That is not a good thing. There are reasons why MLB struggles and the NFL has been a juggernaut. This is undoing all the advantages.

The reason baseball sucks is because there is no revenue sharing. So you have the rich teams Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, Phillies etc. And then you have everyone else.

Whenever a small market baseball team develops a good player they can never afford to keep them. So all the good players funnel to the rich teams. That is why you end up with the Yankees winning year after year. Not because they are overly smart but because they are filthy rich. When was the last time the Yankees developed anyone? All their players were taken from other teams (except Jeter). When was the last time the Pittsburgh Pirates won anything? A long long long time ago. Because they are poor.

The reason the NFL is awesome is because small market teams can compete and do well. Green Bay, Baltimore, Arizona all have a chance. Now the NFL is going to screw it all up.

Greedy Idiots.
