Re: NFL Off Topic
Maybe the Harbaugh stuff was overblown? I hope so.
Amid rumors and reports that Jim Harbaugh is unhappy or is at odds with the San Francisco 49ers, the coach says he only wants to do one thing: "Coach the team."
In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Harbaugh said he's told owner Jed York, "I don't want any more power. I want to coach the team. And I've never told anybody else otherwise."Comment

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10...re-power-moneyOriginally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

It will add an entirely new dimension when a team is down by 6 driving for a late TD.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
I love it. It actually makes the PAT relevant. And probably takes the XP back to it's origins. When the creators of the game were drawing up the rules, I am guessing there weren't too many kicking specialists with the benefits of 21st century technology and training. I don't believe it was ever intended to be a proposition with a 99.6% success rate.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Increasing the importance of fgs and fg kickers at the expense of tds and the actual football players who score them is an almost unimaginably bad idea. "If it ain't broke..."Last edited by coogrfan; 03-04-2014, 11:57 AM.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
Be careful what you wish for. As it stands now a td is worth more than two fgs. Take that away and you've changed the fundamental nature of the game...and not for the better.

Re: NFL Off Topic
A TD has always been worth two FG's with an opportunity for an additional point. The game has effectively evolved away from it's fundamental nature. This rule (with the 83% success rate in 2013) will actually take the game back to the spirit in which it was intended.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
If anything it gives coaches something to think about. Go for a two-yard two-point conversion, or kick a 42-yard extra point.Originally posted by BlueNGoldI feel weird for liking a post about exposed penises.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
42 yard extra points are an overkill solution to a problem that doesnt really exist.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
Me neither. I've got a better idea.
Reduce touchdowns to four points, keep the PAT at one, and make field goals worth 5 points. Get rid of placekicking. The only way to score goals is via the dropkick, or if the ball is fumbled and then kicked.
Oh, and while we are at it, get rid of the snap. Proper football is initiated with a scrum, and no more forward passing.
There you guys go, I fixed the PAT issue, the defenseless receiver issue, the stupid QB rules, and placekickers being too damn accurate. I have single handedly solved all of the ills of modern football.Thanks to LBzrules: So these threads won't be forever lost.

Re: NFL Off Topic
What would the law suit have been about? Just wondering because Tenard Jackson still has yet to be reinstated from his "year long" suspension from two years ago.Moderator
