If you never get fixed, continue to focus on it. Don't come back to the league for a handful of games and then leave again. That's idiotic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoSox05 116 Posted August 23, 2019 Packers and Raiders had to play on a 80 yard field yesterday because the end zones were so crappy they were afraid the players would get hurt. Seems like the NFL should be able to do better considering they are worth 900 billion dollars or whatever. The good outcome was that there was no kick offs and it was great.

Nathan Peterman kept throwing passes into the normal end zone, I think he forgot that is was now out of bounds or he was just overthrowing by ten yards. It's hard to tell what that guy is doing.

Is there a reason they chose to play in Winnipeg, like did one of the teams have a connection to the city? Or just another money grab attempt by the NFL?

Or just another money grab attempt by the NFL? It was the Raiders home game, so they set all this up. I think it might have been because the A's have a long home stand and they needed somewhere to play. It would have been a cool idea, but they messed it up. High ticket prices, bad field, probably should of had it on a Saturday, so people could have traveled to it. They should have just worked out a deal with the Packers and played at Lambeau.
