Who thinks that some seasons for certain sports are just way too long? Baseball and Basketball seem to go on forever but a great sport like football is only 16 games and then the playoffs if we are lucky....Who would rather see sports like baseball and Basketball cut back a little just to give us a few more football games?

I agree; with the exception of the NFL, I think that all seasons are too long. Even my favorite, the NHL, drags on. Especially this year, with the Olympic break. The Stanley Cup Finals shouldn't be going on in June.

Baseball ends up finishing around Halloween, way too late. Basketball just ended, and its almost 4th of July.

The solution would be to reduce the amount of regular season games, but that will never happen, because it will reduce revenue. Can't do that, now, can we?

I wish the NFL season could be longer but the problem is I don't think the players could hold up. The 16-game season takes a lot out of those guys now and I think extending it would shorten their careers. NFL is the most exciting sport though. Look at the attention it gets during free agency, the draft, mini-camp & training camp. We can't get enough. C'mon training camp. I need some NFL news...

Baseball could be cut back some. Say maybe start playoffs at the beginning of September.

NHL and NBA seasons are WAY too long.

Unlike the other sports - football is way to demanding on the human body in order to extend or stretch out the season. Maybe adding a couple extra bye weeks might be good but every year not the best team always wins the Super Bowl - generally the most healthy team does. 1 week of rest does not heal the damage a full game does to these players.

The only way to make the football season longer would be to reduce the number of pre-season games. And I don't think the length of the basketball or baseball seasons has anything to do with how long the football season is.
