Top 10 reasons why the NFL is likely to go to an 18 game regular season

10) It's the only way to get rid of the horror that is preseason games

9) The extra games will finally let the world see all of the amazing back up quarterback talent in the league

8) An extra two weeks of fantasy football is just what the nation's marriage counselors needed

7) The nation's concussion experts will get enough data to make better decisions

6) With each passing year, fewer and fewer people buying into the idea that there are months in the year when you should watch other sports

5) More regular season games means more chances to see hated players on rival teams get hurt

4) With the advent of running back by committee, it's the only way to keep the goal of a 1,000 yard rushing season alive

3) Gives the league more opportunities to inflict games on foreign markets

2) A longer regular season will give the Broncos and Cowboys a longer stretch run in which to fail

1) The same thing that decides everything else in the NFL: cash, cash, cash

Man. For a league that easily has the best thing going, the NFL is hellbound to fuck it all up. Nobody watches the regular season for the NBA, NHL or MLB, so the NFL's best idea is to add more games. Brilliant!
