The refs ain't worth a fuck now. Wait till the games stretch out to 4 hours while they try and figure shit out.Dr Death wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:36 pm:If only we could get 10 - 15 more new rules.... the league would be damn near perfect!

I'm pretty sure that's the goal. It will take a few more rules before they can get it there.Sold My Soul wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:39 pm:The refs ain't worth a fuck now. Wait till the games stretch out to 4 hours while they try and figure shit out.
Football players know the risks just like cops and firefighters and military.
And they get paid millions to play it.
Just play flag football and be done with it.

It's ridiculous that the "competition committee" is made up of front office personnel and coaches of other teams. Talk about giving the look of impropriety. They along with the NFL officiating should be made up of a completely different entity.ALLRAIDERWORLD21 wrote Mon Mar 25, 2024 1:46 pm:What do you guys think..

Flag football doesn't make sense because we'd just watch a lot more college and rival leagues that would still play tackle football.Sold My Soul » Tue Mar 26, 2024 6:18 pm
And it's all bullshit to provide shade to the syndicate that "they care" about player safety, to try and stem the flow of lawsuits, it's obvious. Owners want a shield to protect their assets to keep them on the field.Dr Death wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 5:22 pm:I'm pretty sure that's the goal.

I don't know how this rule is going to affect the game, but the XFL and leagues like it have always been experimental and often at the behest of the NFL. They try stuff in the minor leagues and the NFL decides whether to make changes based on the experiment. It's not ripping something off, it's adoption.AdamJoshua28 wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:47 pm:We're the NFL let's ripoff the XLF and pretend we didn't.
What's next running back and 3 receivers that can be in motion before the snap. This motion can be lateral or it can be towards the line of scrimmage, or something else groundbreaking, eh?

I'd watch badminton before watching the View.16 to 88 wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 6:00 pm:Can you imagine?!!
I know some would still watch it but it makes me wonder just how many would even so much as bother. Might as well spend your time watching badminton or the view.

Same page. I would definitely watch badminton before ever thinking of watching the view.Dr Death wrote Wed Mar 27, 2024 3:55 am:I'd watch badminton before watching the View.
I find it hard to watch the NFL now. If it weren't for the Raiders, I wouldn't even bother with it.

The kickoff rule is gonna be interesting - every ST coach in the league has a chance to be an innovator. It seems like the kick returner with long speed will lose his role to the more shifty punt returner type. And it seems like the coverage teams could end up manned with bigger stronger guys with instincts as opposed to pure speed guys as well. More LBs/RBs fewer CBs/WRs.AdamJoshua28 » Wed Mar 27, 2024 3:36 pm
That would actually cost the billionaire owners money.BigJerk wrote Tue Mar 26, 2024 7:48 am:But still no ruling on AstroTurf.
