I guess if you haven’t done it/been there, you don’t get it.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    No gripes from me about what they do during the scrimmage. Most of us understand FB is a violent game. It is the ultimate team sport with the best connection to fans imho. Just think they are missing the boat with fan engagement. They need to keep trying to promote and expand the brand.

    I agree. My earlier remarks justify enjoying what the spring game has become even if that means it's not something enjoyable to watch on TV. Coaches should do what's best for the players and team definitely. Us fans can be entertained during the season as you point out.

    Don’t disagree with what you are saying/suggesting, but keep in mind the grind players go through. It’s a taxing thing. Just being able and given a chance to relax and disengage is helpful. Being under constant pressure is difficult. They give us enough on the field IMO.

    I personally don't really care about the starter that much, I wanna watch the Young guys get some action. It's why I never leave a blowout! ����

    How about letting fans on the field to be tackling dummies?

    Agree. I don’t think anyone is complaining about the scrimmage. We understand the reasoning. The fan involvement - engagement was significant in the past... no longer the case.
