Things sports should eliminate because I can't appreciate them for what they are

Baseball: Should eliminate pitchers, and replace them with the guys that throw batting practice and home run derby's. There simply isn't enough offensive fireworks imo. We need more homeruns, more base runners, and more scoring. It's boring.

Basketball: Should eliminate fouls. There is too much stoppage in play when the whistle blows for every foul. It's pointless, all of this stopping because players are acting like pansies. If you can't get to the basket because somebody slapped you on the arm, then you don't belong at the basket.

Golf: The scores aren't low enough for my liking. There should be a set amount of mulligans available for each round of a tournament.

Football: Should eliminate the offside rule. I find it to be unnecessarily prohibitive to have to line up a certain way, and wait for the ball to be snapped. Just think of the improvements which could be made on both offense and defense if we didn't have to recognize this silly rule.

Soccer: Well, I think this one has been covered.

Until these changes are made I will bitch and moan about anyone or anything related to these imperfect contests. Any additions you might have are welcome

Perfect games are more exciting than homeruns

What's ironic is that you think you are showing me the irony I didn't recognize in my own post. When in actuality the irony was the whole point of the post.

Now STFU Freud.

Shut the mother frick up.

Leave baseball alone. It's fine as it is. We don't want you ADD casual sports fans anyways. Stick to the NFL and UFC - aka: the sports that fricking morons cum all over.

Changes that will ruin their sport:

Football – the forward pass.

Baseball –eliminating the spitball and enacting the foul/strike rule

Basketball – the shot clock

Hockey – eliminating the two line pass rule

Games are fluid. We change rules.

Football should add one land mine buried at random for each game. Not a big one. Just enough to hurt.

Russian women tennis players should have to play in bikinis.

In baseball, the starting pitcher and catcher must swap positions in one inning.
