No question but it isn't unreasonable to want to watch the 17 games and to feel disappointed and express that displeasure by the NFL decision to change those dynamics. I am almost certain that very few player actually want to play football on Christmas day and the support staff including Police officers, vendors, security, parking staff. For me missing the game is very disappointing for me but for the people required to work on that day they don't have a real choice. Football on Christmas day is just a bad idea.
