Dear Commissioner Goddell, Did You Happen to Notice the Number of Injuries in the Superbowl

[Yavin4]

Both the Steelers and Packers suffered major injuries to key players leading up to the Superbowl and during it. The Steelers lost their All Star center in the AFC championship game, and the Packers lost their defensive leader in the Superbowl. I bring this up to you in the hopes that you will re-consider your insane demand to go to an 18 game season.

As it stands right now, players struggle to make it through a 16 game season and the playoffs. Adding two more games, puts the overall quality of the game at risk. The Superbowl MVP, Aaron Rogers, suffered two major concussions during the season. More games would mean more hits, and it's likely that Rogers doesn't even play in the playoffs.

Please sir, keep the season at 16 games.

Thank you.

1. I agree, but I think the field in Dallas had something to do with it

Maybe the cold weather hardened the field and the material underneath it, but the ways some players were getting hurt was just bizarre. You don't normally break your collarbone after diving after a ball and hitting the ground.

2. Hey Congrats on Your Packers Win

But like I said, imagine having to sit through two extra games knowing your QB has already had two concussions during the season.

He is as all "commissioners" are toadies for the owners.
