Is this the only thing to dislike the NFL? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

In all my 20 years of watching the NFL, I alays hated the 2 MIN WARNING in the 2nd and 4th Qtr. It just takes the MOMEMTUM out of a DRIVE. Anyone else dislike 2 min warning?

I don't mind it at all.

I'm a fan of a team that usually needs the 2 minute warning for an extra time out, so no it doesn't bother me.

I like the 2 minute warnings.

It adds to the dimension of the game as an extra timeout.

If anything, I'm getting sick of the challenges.
Now that really kills momentum and slows the game down.

I wish they would just check anything that looks questionable- have a ref in a booth just for that- and get on with the game.
Just like they do when a team is not allowed to challenge.

I like the 2 minute warning. It comes in handy sometimes.

I dislike it too, Solomon. To me that is just a way of the networks hiding the fact that they are about to get a lot more money from sponsors.

I also hate the fact that they give television airtime to referees that announce penalties for flags by cutting away from the announcers.

Also what if your team was going down the field in a no huddle offense, that 2 min warning would just put a MONKEY WRENCH in the flow of the Drive-lol
