00:00But how about this story from Pro Football Talk? At this point, expansion to 18 games by 2027,
00:06which is next year, is highly unlikely. The door won't be closed, however, until a date is finalized
00:11for Super Bowl LXII in February of 2028. We do know 18 games is coming, which means they probably
00:18have to put in an extra buy, and that means you probably have to start the season maybe a little
00:22sooner to end it a little bit later here. I do love football, and the longer football goes,
00:27I usually enjoy it. But if you keep doing this at this point, Joe, where every game and every day
00:33there's an NFL game, and we know as well as we can point out, not every game is good. And
00:39if you put
00:40standalone games out there, you can't put a lot of cologne on these stink games that you have to
00:45watch. Is the NFL going to cannibalize itself? Feels like they've lost the plot here, Donnie,
00:52right? And just this unbelievable, money-hungry grab. They are destroying the product. You know
00:58why, Donnie? Because they've gotten to the point where they think they can throw anything up on the
01:04screen, slap the logo NFL on it, and we will all stop what we're doing and watch it no matter
01:11how bad
01:12the product is. That may be true early on, Donnie, but at some point, we're all going to look at
01:18one
01:18another as the consumers and go, this is awful. Absolutely not. Not do it. It's a slippery slope,
01:24so good luck there, Goodell and owners. Let's see how that works out for you.
