people say the “game is dead” at the point where there is parity on most teams,
basically, when there so many 99s that almost every team is stacked and the big spenders arent special anymore.
when strategy is the last determining factor:
most folks quit because they really want tecmo bowl, opposed to a real gridiron chess match.
i dont believe most folks even like the actual sport of football, they just want to feel like a winner….
until “the game is dead” and the glitches and whale rosters dont mean much.
just an observation.
