Robert Hanashiro, Photographer Los Angeles | CA | | Posted: 1:38 PM on 01.22.14 ->> Giving the PAT the boot --- waddya think? http://www.latimes.com/sports/football/nfl/#axzz2r9apZIwA  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I can't wait until he proposes the spot-pass on kickoffs.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Something needs to change. But loosing a point? What is he smoking?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

This is nothing more than a ploy to squeeze a few more commercials into an NFL broadcast, and I do not see increasing advertising revenue as a good reason to play around with the rules of the game.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The idea he likes to replace it is to make it automatic, unless you try for two in which case you either score and get 8 points or fail and get 6. Makes sense to me.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Neither do I, but we're not the ones who receive that advertising revenue. Obviously, those people have a different opinion. ;-)  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
