"What if the Rams met SD in the SB and instead of football they played Ping Pong? Well, actually that MAY be worth watching. laughing smiley But no where near with the same degree of interest.."
No kidding James. My point is NOT that it would have the same interest. Moreover, I agree with you that most feel the same way as you do. But I do believe there is a huge difference between a good flag football game with professional players compared to a game of ping pong. Simply stated: if Goff and Rivers were playing ping pong I wouldn't watch it either. But if the Rams played the Chargers in the SB with the NFL Championship of football at stake I would watch it even it the rules made it flag football. But obviously I would not have the same interest. Nevertheless, I would watch it and root for the Rams given the stakes at issue. After all its still football (not ping pong)
