    That’s a play in which four things can happen and three of them are bad.

    It also screams "we are absolutely running here." Usually the formation for QB sneak does that anyway, but still. I kind of wish more teams used the bootleg - I feel like that's always a great play call in short yardage or goal line situations. Way better than the effing WR fade.

    Well, the way the Niners did it -- lining up Juszczyk out wide (whch they do at times in other situations) and motioning him under center -- did not scream run until the last second or two.

    Doesn't the receiver have to at least try to make it look like he's going to run a route to hold the CB? He just stood there.

    Nope. I'd much rather be at my bar spot where I can watch multiple games at once. Not to mention the fresh hell it is to even get to FedEx Field. From the bad fans, to the high price of everything, to the massive stoppages in play, it's just not fun anymore.

    Correct.

    Between the white trash acting like f'king assholes but nothing being done to them, and the expense and hassle, easier to stay home and watch on a screen. Or do something else more enjoyable, like watching paint dry.

    I feel the same way about watching any standalone, unique-to-time slot college football game at home. The commercial breaks are so long that I’ve got to change the channel. Eventually, you can find something not in a break.
    As much as people love to rip baseball for being slow, MLB has done a good job of reducing time between innings.

    NCAAF games are drawn out more than any baseball game.

    Waiting four hours for a regulation SEC game to end is bullshit. Glad it's not my problem anymore. Never wanted it to be.
