This space has been belittling preseason football for a decade. These games have no relevance. They have never had any relevance. And they are a useless health risk. It seems the entirety of the league has finally figured that out. And now the media has noticed!
Pre season is officially broken.. and needs a complete overhaul.

Step 1. Two Games.
One of the biggest issues with the preseason is the ridiculousness of playing four games. The only reason these four games exist is because owners (a) can rip off their season ticket holders by forcing the purchase on them and (b) charge exorbitant rates to local television providers for the broadcast rights.
