  1. Team A gets ball. Either scores, punts, turns it over

    Team B gets the ball. Either scores, punts, turns it over

    Check to see if game still tied. If not, game over. If still tied, repeat this process

     

    Just like baseball.

     

    It is so damn easy....

     

    If not the way its done now, this would be fine. Still a "shoot out" but with the real game.

    I think you just made Ray Finkle's list. :lol:

  2. I'm against changing the rules. The game isn't won on a coin toss now. If the team that gets the ball first doesn't score a touchdown, the other team gets the ball. If a defense can't keep the other team out of the end zone on one possession, they deserve to lose the game.

     

    People are raving about how great the Bills-Chiefs game was, and I agree the ending was "exciting," But, personally, I view that outcome the same way I would view an 11-9 baseball game or a 7-5 hockey game. The defenses played like garbage for the last 5 minutes of the game.

     

    I agree with not changing the rules.

    I'd prefer the old rule of whoever scores first wins to what it is now.

     

    But that comes closer to turning on a coin toss. The team that wins the coin toss takes the ball, and just has to get in field goal range, which now is usually north of 50 yards. At least now if you hold them to a field goal, you get the ball with a chance to win or extend the game.

    So play defense and stop them.

     

    Or take care of business in regulation. But the data show clearly that in a playoff situation scoring a touchdown in overtime is not a high bar.

     

    You're working my side of the street. That's MY position. If you can't keep them out of the end zone just 1 time, you deserve to lose.I'm just saying that the current system is more indulgent of the kicking team than sudden death.

    Who is you? The team that defends first, or the team that defends second? The FAIR thing to do is allow both teams to have a chance to score. The only reason they don't is for time and the fact some say safety. If both teams score TDs on their 1st possession they should have a FG shoot off.

     

    You refers to the defense on the field at the start of overtime. All they have to do is keep the other team out of the end zone, and they guarantee their team a chance to score. If they can't do that, on 1 series, then I'm sorry, they don't get the participation trophy. "Fairness" comes into play with the coin toss.

    Four words. Field Goal Shootouts Matter. Say it Rick. Say its name.

     

    How about these 4 words, "defensive captains arm wrestle?"

    I hear ya but not very marketable. First it doesn't have a cool term like shootout in it. And also they'll set the goal posts on fire. It going to be badass and help elevate the kickers to the thick thighed gods they should be known as.

    A FG shoot off would actually be great, but more reasonable is to play sudden death 2 pt conversions and the winner of the coin toss gets to choose whether to play offense or defend the 2 pt conversion. If you score you win, if you deny the score then you win. That good, fair, and quick.

  6. Wow. Great game! Congrats Bills.

    opps might not be over. Only up by 3 pts. :lol:

    PLEASE keep posting.

     

    :lol:

    Jinx master at your service sir. :lol:

    Chiefs Nation thanks you!

    :lol: Honestly tho. If a team can drive 50 yards in 13 secs when they have to, then they deserve the win. Feel bad for Buffalo, but that's unacceptable.

    on my list. Watching Swan Song right now.

     

    After a day and thinking about it a lot, I'm not too sure how to take this movie. Let me know what you think when you get around to watching it.

    Watched it last night. It's thought provoking. Interesting satire on a number of things. Warming ending scene.

     

    I keep seeing it compared to the prophetic Idiocracy a lot in how it is frighteningly like real life.

    It's all downhill for the series after this one. 1st two are classics. Prometheus and Covenent were better than the last two Ripley ones but it's not saying much. I didn't even bother with the PG13 Alien/Predator.

    It flips the coin on a lot of subjects. Reveals a lot of hypocrisy in a superficial society. It's good enough to watch again and I think I will.

  9. The wife and I did a Winston Churchill double header...

     

    Darkest Hour - fantastic performance by Gary Oldman

     

    Dunkirk - Brilliant cinematography

    Watched Darkest Hour the other day. Possibly the most convincing performance of a historical figure I've ever seen.
  10. The original and the BEST.

    I could say the same for this.....

    Is the new show any good?

    No idea. I liked the original tho wasn't must watch TV for me back in the day. But that theme song...........

    It did have a great theme song. With the film work, in the running for top opening credit sequence. The shots of the hula girls hips didn't hurt that. :drool: :lol:
