Hall of Fame Game

I just read that the Packers will be required to play in the Hall of Fame Game this year! Not exactly an honor and I wish they could turn it down. The two teams that play in the HOF game each play 5 preseason games, every one else plays in only 4 and that’s already too many. The bottom line is they will have a 20% greater chance of a serious injury i.e. Jordy Nelson last year. Hello! Wake up NFL. While some might consider it a honor when your former QB is receiving his due being inducted into the HOF. I for one (and I’m sure there are many players) don’t see it that way!
