"Having said that, we must keep in mind that if the concussion law- suits are found for the plain- tiffs, we are talking about effectively eliminating foot- ball in the U.S. They will have to say football inherent- ly is too dangerous a game to play because it inherently causes concussions. That could be the impact of these lawsuits." That's a doomsday sce- nario. More likely, the NFL will be around and will remain this nation's No. 1 sport. With labor peace assured for another nine years, pro football is well-positioned to continue its prosperity. One of the biggest challenges to remaining No. 1 in 2017 will be making every game for 17 weeks an event, no matter where it is being viewed. Making the stadium experience as enriching as what fans get at home is a challenge now, and will be even more so in five years. Consider how the fans in their decked-out living rooms, watching on high- definition TVs, have access to every game through DirecTV's Sunday Ticket and the Red Zone channel. They have all kinds of statis- tical info at fingertips, partic- ularly for their fantasy teams. And they can get everything on a smart phone or tablet. By 2017, maybe even Grubman sees cameras in locker rooms or tunnels beneath the stadium or coaches' facilities supplying video for the folks on hand. "I don't look at it as trying to match or duplicate the home experience," said Steelers President Art Rooney. "The idea is create an in-stadium experience that is unique and different from the home experience. It's always going to be unique in terms of in-stadi- um live experience. You won't ever equal that, with thousands of fans cheering along with you, no matter how much you turn up the sound at home." Turning up technology for action on the field is ahead, too. Most intriguing is possibly having a computer chip in the football that, through lasers or some other electronic wizardry, will indicate if the ball has crossed the goal line. On- field officials — replace- ments or otherwise — prob- ably can't wait for that. "Definitely. We're almost there," NFL senior executive vice president Ray Anderson said. Giants general manager Jerry Reese agrees. "That's something I could definitely see by 2017," he said. The first-down line that has become a staple of all NFL broadcasts should become a fixture for fans at the stadium through the same technology, too. Chain gangs might disappear, as well, if measurements can accurately be determined through high-tech enhance- ments. Lasers or computer chips could "extend 100 feet up" Anderson said, to deter- mine if a kick goes through the uprights. sooner, they will enjoy all of that — and more — at the ballpark. The Tampa Bay Bucca- neers announced this week they hired an outside compa- ny to enhance the in-stadium experience through "free Wi- Fi, a new replay system, and bolstered customer service." Fans can take advantage of wireless access to use the team's official mobile app, as well as the Bucs' tablet and smartphone application that will give them special fea- tures when used at Raymond James Stadium on game day. Fully powered Wi-Fi will be available at all stadiums "much sooner than in five years," said Redskins general manager Bruce Allen. Stats and highlight packages from NFL Films, too. "There's so many things we can and will do with tech- nology the way it is and will be," Anderson said. time with personal trainers and dieticians. At least they'd better, according to Brian Martin, CEO of TEST's academies in Florida and New Jersey, who believes the current CBA and its limita- tions on time spent at team facilities will have a huge effect on player health. "They need to make sure and GMs who chose them, on site. they have doctors and physi- cal therapists that the athletes trust, people outside their NFL organizations," Martin said. "They will need to do research on their own into helmets and equipment. Nutrition will become more calculated; it's hit or miss with them right now." Martin sees players hiring their own specialists such as podiatrists, chiropractors and sports psychologists. "They are CEOs of their company and their bodies are their company," he said. Those bodies have grown larger, yet faster and more agile. Unlike Rooney and Browns President Mike Holmgren, Martin thinks the size of NFL players will con- tinue to increase. "The player gets selected and almost immediately goes to a suite of the team that chose him, gets to meet his new team, some of its play- ers," Allen said. "I think it would be great and I see that coming by (2017)." He and many other league executives predict a longer draft, too. Considering how the draft has become a cot- tage industry — the NFL's most popular event that does- n't involve actual football — they probably are correct. Teams scout for as many as 12 rounds, and the scram- ble to sign undrafted free agents can be frenetic and frustrating for everyone. But the players' union would have to approve any changes. "Personnel guys always "I see 400-pounders on the lines and 300-pound tight ends who can run a 4.6 or 4.7 40," Martin said. "With nutri- tion and weight training and all the science they can do now — this society is all about more is better. They are averaging 300 pounds in high school on the lines." But Rooney cringes when asked about 400-pound NFLers. Executive Director DeMau- rice Smith believes Jerry Jones has put many of the advancements in motion at his billion-dollar palace, things that will become com- mon throughout the NFL in five years. "Take Cowboys Stadium, where that stadium was designed for players to walk through that tunnel and glass partition where fans can see them up close and touch them," Smith said. "I don't care how good your HD TV is at home, if you want that opportunity to get up close, that is very cool in Cowboys Stadium. NFL Players Association The monstrous, crystal- clear scoreboard at Cowboys Stadium will be replicated elsewhere, providing a better variety of replays, real-time statistics and — get this — instant measurements of how much force Ray Lewis, if he is still playing at age 42, used to bring down a runner.

One way: to touch players." "It's hard for me to believe we will see a lot of 400- pound players, let alone any," the Steelers owner said. "I do think with the guys today who are at 350 pounds or so, we've got to be close to the maximum. But knowing that many years ago, there were no 300 pounders or very few like we have today, it's diffi- cult to project. how big players will be able to get to perform and move with the agility you need in the NFL. I think we are close to maxed-out on the weight." And Holmgren, master of "I think there's a limit to ever this big and maybe we have maxed out on the offen- sive and defensive lines," he said.
