In all seriousness, I really do hate fans who take it so seriously they will get into a stadium/bar fight. It's only a fucking game.

Hey am hearing it right, did they change the starting point of a kick off touchback to the 25 yard line?

Wikipedia Wrote:On March 23, 2016, the NFL announced that it would award a touchback line at the 25-yard line and much discussion and analysis on the impact of this change has emerged. This new rule will be re-evaluated after the 2016 NFL season.

I was surprised by this myself.

I don't know, it may help make the game more competitive. Feels weird though. One rule change I have always hated, is making it illegal to kick the ball out of bounds on a kickoff. That makes no fucking sense if you can still kick it out of bounds on a punt. And they moved up the kick of what, 15 years ago to prevent injury on a run back, so why not let the kicker try to back up the offence say on the 1 or 5 in any case?

I don't see the point in hating teams that suck, even if they are division rivals. Example: as a Giants fan I fucking hate Dallas and Philly, but I pay no mind to Washington

They haven't always, nor will they always, suck. Besides, in the AFC West, you can pretty much disregard records in division rivalry matchups.
