How do you subtract somebody's reputation points, because you should lose like half of them just for this incredible blithering nonsense. The NFL was so popular after the Colts-Giants Championship game of 1959 that a second, competing major league was able to take hold. Then after the Colt-Jet Super Bowl, became so popular that the two leagues merged, and all but took over Monday Night TV in the next decade.
