I asked my brother the other day if he'd still watch football if it were full contact, but robots playing it instead of people, 'Real Steel' style. He said no. I kinda think a lot of people would agree with him. What do you guys think?

I wouldn't watch it either. One thing I love about sports is the human emotion behind it and the story it can tell. You can't get that with robots.
Would take all the fun out of it. Sometimes you watch sports just simply amazed like "Wow a human pulled that off?". Shit you just can't believe. Robots would take that magic away.
Overtly violent play. Emphasis on locker room turmoil. Excessive celebration was encouraged, as was retaliation. Pretty much what you'd expect from a WWE funded league. They even had announcers start fights with coaches and shit
It's funny because even though that shit was the bread and butter of the league, it ended up causing its failure. Even with all that circus going on, it was still really boring because the level of play was lousy. When it folded, only a couple of those guys made it to the NFL
ESPN.com news services | November 7, 2013 Miami Dolphins lineman Richie Incognito was investigated last year for harassing a volunteer at the Dolphins' annual golf tournament by allegedly molesting her with a golf club, according to Aventura, Fla., police.
The original police report states that the alleged incident happened at the Turnberry Resort & Club in Aventura, but no charges were ever filed against Incognito.
The 34-year-old volunteer told police Incognito had been drinking and was "acting very inappropriate towards her," and that she went to police after Incognito said he wouldn't apologize.
The report states the the female volunteer told police that Incognito "used his golf club to touch her by rubbing it up against her vagina, then up her stomach then to her chest. He then used the club to knock a pair of sunglasses off the top of her head.
"After that, he proceeded to lean up against her buttocks with his private parts as if dancing, saying 'Let it rain! Let it rain!'" the report states. "He finally finished his inappropriate behavior by emptying bottled water in her face."
