You're 6 games out, the season is over.  It's done.  So why not just save yourself the trouble and just forfeit the rest of the season?  Sure it might piss some fans off, but I'm pretty sure the teams can easily just refund it towards any game next season.  There's no point risking the wear and tear of your cleats and mitts, or risking injury, so pack it in and let's get ready for next season.  There's nothing worse than suffering a year-long injury so late in the season in a meaningless game. 

Speaking of the opposite, nothing like making your football team go full-assed in Training Camp when the regular season is still 7 weeks away.  Yeah, don't go easy on your players, it's the exhibition season for christ's sake!

Coach: "Alright, team!  This is Football training camp! It's show time!  I want to see more head-to-head hits, more running, more squatting, and more ....good football playing!"

Football player # 54: "Owwwww!!!  I pulled my hamstring!  I can't walk!!"

Coach: "Take a salt tablet."

Football player # 23: "I aggravated a disc in my neck!  I'm gonna need surgery!"

Coach: "Walk it off!  Hey # 83, get up and stop hogging all the water and get back to your wind sprints, Butterball!"

Football player # 18: "Ow!! My knee!  My knee!  I broke a knee! I broke my mother fucking knee!!"

Coach: "Where's the trainer?  Pump the cortisone injection right into the kneecap.  Drill the bone if you have to."

**12 hours later**

Coach: "12 hamstring pulls!  3 ruptured hernias!!   Broken fingers, broken wrists, broken legs!  23 concussions!  Ripped knee tendons!  DUI's!  You call yourselves "show time ready" ???  Kick-off is 63 days away!!  Alright, tomorrow we practice at 4am with helmets this time.  .....

**players walking away into the dusk**


Football Player # 65: "Coach is a god damn fucking idiot, he is."
Football Player # 27: "Gonna tip off our plays to the opponents."
Football Player # 13: "I make 8 times what he makes, he'll get his dumb cocksucking pirating ass fired before I'm let go."
Football Player # 80: "I'm just gonna drop the fucking ball."
