I thought I caught this while watching the game between KC and New England tonight.
KC was beating down NE, I was watching while eating a sandwich in a local Pizza joint. The game is out of hand early in the 4th, Brady drops back and misses the underneath coverage, who is just camped and waiting for the throw, Brady lets go, dude picks of ball and returns it about 30 yards for a TD. Nothing remarkable, the guy goes down to his knees, camera cuts away.
Then there is a 15 yard penalty on the play, WHAT THE HELL?!, and I can recall the guy going down to his knees before the cutaway. NO FUCKING WAY, I THINK!! YUP, FUCKING WAY! watch the whole thing.

IMO - The NFL is in a world of hurt
This coming from a liberal guy who loves football.
Over the past five years I have noticed that my NFL viewing has dropped off. Understandable at first, I always liked college more than the pro game. I live on the "liberal" West Coast, The OC to be specific, and I always was amazed on how the NFL could thrive without a team in the LA market.
The arrogance of the owners, and the League in ignoring the second largest market always intrigued me. And there never seemed to be any blow back. Now I think the arrogance is catching up with the League.
If your plan is to basically tell a major market to fuck off, because we have something you want, then you have business case. If you tell a major market to fuck off while the other markets question why are we subsiding this shit, then you have an issue.
Rather than the LA market being used as a leverage for other cities, we are approaching a point where the other cities will question why are concessions being granted to the NFL.
