[NU Sports] 12th game blues

NO!  12-games is already 1 too many.

I love my season tickets, but I feel burned out late in the season.  
With more useless/tune-up games it would get even worse.

I want to see 1-2 home non-conference games to give our new players a 
sense of game speed and to get me back into the football groove, but 
no more than that.

Also early season the weather is warm, which not only means I waste a 
perfectly good day that I could be out running or cycling, but also 
warm weather football is evil.  Football should always be played on 
cool, crisp mid-October days with a mix of sun and some winter-hinting 
gloom.

If you extend the season later into the fall the weather gets quite 
iffy and there is less time to buy plane tickets, book hotels, 
kennels, schedule vacation days, etc. for bowl games.

Say no to extra creampuffs, america is fat enough already ;-)

Heck, I'd argue for a 14-game schedule, if it meant 6 non-conference 
pushovers, and one conference win got you to a bowl.
