Hello! and my two cents worth...

Thanks goodness! I like football for the football, not bad weather. I can't stand games like our recent Lambeau game where it's more about who can tolerate the elements better. It's the 21st century and every team should be required to have an indoor stadium. Football was only meant to be played outdoors because it wasn't economically feasible to build indoor stadiums back when it was invented, but now it is.

Basketball games aren't decided by who is best at hitting jumpers in a foot of snow or on a windy day. I'm guessing not many would like outdoor basketball in December xD. Hockey is probably the only sport meant to be played outdoors. It's probably the only reason the Purple People Eaters were ever any good. They were just better at handling the cold. Then they played the Super Bowl in a neutral site, in a warm city, and got their doors blown off. That's how you get narratives like "defenses win championships". It's more like the elements affect offenses more.

It's kinda what annoys me about baseball too. Most of the games are played in the heat of summer, then the championship is decided in the cold where the physics are different. More runs are scored in warm games, more HR's hit, fewer errors committed, more of a break on pitches etc.
