Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

“You want to add excitement with every play,” Goodell said. “So there have been some proposals. Some are still going through the process of creativity, but there’s one proposal in particular that I’ve heard about (where) it’s automatic that you get seven points when you score a touchdown, but you could potentially go for an eighth point, either by running or passing the ball. But if you fail, you’d go back to six.”

Dude insists on screwing with the best game in town, and something tells me that the Saints will be the ones get screwed somehow...

How about we just can Goodell.

Thats the stupidest thing I have ever heard. He will not stop until the sport is called Goodellball. How lonng is this clown gonna be commish?? Is he under contract or anything?

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

What's next?

FGs are 2 points under 30 yards, 3 points for 31-50, 4 points for 50+ and if you miss a FG you have to get Goodell's mug tattooed on your posterior and play the next week in nothing but a helmet and a thong?

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I like the idea I heard on the radio the other day. Whoever scores the TD has to kick the extra point.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

No it should be the other way around. The closer you get the more points you get. Any thing under 30 yards is worth 4 points. Anything over 50 yards is worth no points but you get a first down and if it's in the last two minutes you get a 15 second roll back on the clock.

The NFL should hire me.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I like the idea.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I hate that guy.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I have no use for him either; but even a douche-bag can have a good idea!

Didn't Hitler came up with idea for the autobahn?

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

And i want to can Goodell.

I posted this on another thread as a joke but the more I think about it the more I like it.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

Extra points are made at a rate of 99,7%. Its by far the most boring play in football but still a quite dangerous one, especially for the offensive linemen. Usually while kicking an XP or FG an O-line player sets up in a much wider stance than usual making you very vulnerable to lower leg injuries. Guys get rolled over and you sprain ankles, bust knees etc. As a player I always hated that play for that reason.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

What I liked was the Heath Evans version.

TD = 6
1 xtra point = Take it into the endzone from the 3 yard line.

2 xtra points = Take it in from the 5.

No more kicking XTPs

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

So you want to get rid of XP for safety reasons yet you still can go for 2 where guys still beat the crap out of each other for 3 yards. Just leave it alone.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

Off topic, but the decision to build the autobahn was made under the western-minded Weimar Republic, which was instituted by the Allied forces after WWI, and which was eventually succeeded by the Third Reich.

Granted Hitler was the one who eventually pushed its construction forward, but he wasn't the one who came up with the idea.

Well thank you Mister Helper!

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I really wish he would leave things alone. The NFL is already one of the most popular and lucrative sports in the world. He keeps wanting to change things in the name of money. Adding more teams to the playoffs and this idea of trying to make the game "more exciting" are just about money. As was him trying to make the season longer.

This guy can't leave it alone. It'll be 2 hand touch with a 20 game season where all teams make it to the playoffs and every TD counts as 20 points by the time he's done ****ing everything up.

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I actually don't have much of a problem with it. PATs are very very painful for O-Lineman. I heard Ross Tucker talk about it and he had a good point, D-lineman are basically trying to rip you apart to block the kick. Without the PAT there is a lesser chance of injury. The only thing is how the automatic points will effect the record book.

screwing with tradition. this guy cares about the money not the game

Re: Goofdell wants to can PATs
 

I smell the remains of the XFL coming to life in the NFL

And since we are also having trivial pursuit moments:

Did you know that Kevin Kaesviharn and our beloved Steve Gleason played in the XFL.

I think every time that the Saints score Goodell gets kicked in the A$$ by Hartley since he's not doing anything. :bng:
