A look into the growing threats to the popularity of the NFL and what
the league can do to avoid collapse
The National Football League, despite its massive success and
unprecedented earning power, is at its most pivotal moment since the
AFL-NFL merger four decades ago. With public awareness of the issues
plaguing the NFL--from domestic violence, drug use, and health of the
players to oversaturation--there is a possibility that football as we
know it could vanish in the very near future. In Two Minute Warning,
author Mike Freeman, who has covered the league for almost three
decades, looks at all the factors that could cause the league, as we
know it, to collapse in on itself. Freeman has interviewed top NFL
athletes, coaches, and executives as well as economists and scientists
to paint this complete portrait of the league today--and lay out the
steps it can take to move into the future.
