IMHO, the players union will not approve an 18 game season. Goodell's troubles in the past few years (Bountygate, Rice, marijuana, Peterson, and other dom violence players) will bite him here. Players don't want more opportunities for injury. Plus, isn't the NBA All-Star Weekend always around President's Day? I can't see the NBA standing idly by if the NFL tries to move in.
