I worked all weekend last week so I did not see any games last weekend. Had a little free time today so I turned the TV on to watch some football. Now I know it's pre-season and the games don't really count. But neither team is playing any of their starters. Most of them aren't even suited up. Nothing wrong with them, they are on the sidelines in street clothes.
I"m watching on TV so I can just change the channel and watch something else. But if I paid to see that game in person, I'd be a little ticked. And who can understand this new "helmet" rule ?
When it comes to pre-season, week 3 is what it is all about. That is when teams have their “dress rehearsal” game. Weeks 1 and 2, I quickly lose interest a few series after the starters get pulled. I don’t even bother to watch Week 4.
