but people absolutely do like this stuff
FOX bought the rights to Thursday Night Football - because they will make money on it
The NFL televises the draft (Also now on FOX) and the schedule release and other things that you think are too much because fans of the NFL overwhelmingly tune in and watch
The NFL is on Thursday, Sunday, and Monday night because its a ratings beast and routinely beats regularly scheduled programming by large margins
I could care less if some Parrot calls out the name of some draft pick... it does nothing for me personally... but the NFL is an event.
I go to games when and if I want and I'm also totally comfortable sitting at home on watching any game on Directv
This is one of the best times to be a fan of the NFL

The NFL has gotten foolish in so many ways..........Fans want to see.........FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!! Most do not care about the IDIOTIC gimmicks such as this Draft Day CRAP.......Concerts before, during and after every game (The STAGED crowds by the stage annoys the hell outta me!) My Wife is a VERY casual fan and I have never heard her say ANY of the concerts was why she tuned in..and she's a music NUT! The comic, Bill Burr, has a video or two on Youtube, and he NAILS how I feel about the side shows during games and even Super Bowl parties.
