I'm glad this is being addressed. The high drop has frustrated me for years.

Good. Safety first. It's a contact sport but tackling appropriately and safely should definitely be implemented. Rugby did this years ago and is a safer sport than football. A couple of year ago a pro football team brought in a professional rugby player to teach them how to tackle. I think it was the Eagles. They tackled more effectively and were less likely to injure or be injured at the tackle. It's not always the tackled player who needs attention after the play.

The NFL needs to ban Loomis from getting any more game balls.

Soon, we’ll be watching multimillionaire monsters wearing tutus and ballet slippers who aren’t even allowed to “taunt” each other. The games will be aired on Nickelodeon. Quido will call it Porn.

Oh he won’t be getting anymore….he doesn’t have Sean to pile up those wins for him. Instead of getting balls maybe he should grow a pair
