Football preseasonPeter King says the preseason is too long and proposes a two-game schedule, but I don't see a difference between Mike Vick going down in game 2 of a 4-game schedule or a 2-game schedule. And it's not as if players don't get injured in the regular season; playing a 16-game schedule instead of 18 games probably keeps players fresher at the end of the year and decrease their chance of injury late in the season. King also tells us who the first two choices were for the SI cover of the football preview issue. Now we know that the SI jinx works even before they get on the cover ... UPDATE Chris Mortensen reports that a survey of head coaches two years ago shows that a majority was against reducing the preseason schedule. |
