Well, why not? They're already trying to be like the Arena League in every other way ...

Hahahaha....that is all. :ranger:

Seriously, no one should be surprised anymore.

Hey NFL? How about doing something that would actually have a positive effect on the game, for a change. Like fixing the absolutely atrocious and unacceptable officiating week in and week out. Not lame-ass bullshit ideas like this.

I hear London is on the next ballot of SB host cities... My sources tell me that it's what the fans want. :chuckle:

Oh for fuck sake...really? Make it harder for Kickers but keep making things more difficult for the defenses on a daily basis?

Just leave the game the fuck alone.

Narrower goal posts sounds silly but I did like the idea of moving the extra point back 10-15 yards. It's pretty much automatic from its current distance and thereby "useless" as Belichick called it.

why not play twice a week 12 weeks seasons so you get more game revenue and have a longer off season to tinker with rules ( dripping with sarcasm alert )

[Count Steeler]

They still play the Pro Bowl?

Roger Goodell's idea to change something that doesn't need to be changed no. 45621

Either get rid of the grounding penalty, allow OL to hold or just give the O a 12th man.

That would give the player a shorter season, and more time off in the off season. After all, we have to protect the health of the players. (How is that for sarcasm.)

Implement the 5-Mississippi rule in the NFL.
