Boo!

That's my thought on it and this is why.

1. Everytime the owners have a call that doesn't go their way they want to change the rule. (ei. Steelers) If I remember correctly in the Steelers-Falcons overtime both teams had the ball quite a few times and played a whole quarter and neither team scored.

2. What happened to shortening the games? I thought that was why they made changes to the play clock and the game clock. Sounds like the new overtime would only lengthen the games. What happens if neither team can score a touchdown and kick feild goals? (I know they are talking about fine tuning it.)

3. I thought the NFL wanted to be unique and not copy rules from other programs
(college & CFL) well sounds like they are leaning toward the college rules for
overtime.

4. I like sudden death. The best ever playoff game Dolphins vs. Chargers was ended in
sudden death and I didn't hear anyone complaining.
What happened to giving your team a chance with good defense? If you stop the
other teams offense then you get the ball and a chance to win.

Just another bored, frustrated SAINTS FAN, Can't even get excited about the STUPER
BOWL wanting to vent.
