Murder Gary Bettman and return hockey.

But actual rule changes for each sport...

FOOTBALL
Allow defensive backs to make contact before the ball is thrown again. Go back to 1970s rules in the passing game, essentially.

BASKETBALL
Widen and lengthen the court. Owners will howl from lost ticket sales, but the players are so much bigger and there is no space. Make the court bigger to allow for more creativity on the court.

SOCCER
Eliminate offside when the ball is with 20 yards of the goal. Force defenders to actually play defense instead of just stepping forward. It's exploiting a hole in the rulebook, and it rewards not playing soccer.

BASEBALL
Any reliever that comes in to the game must face at least two batters before he can be removed, unless he is injured.

HOCKEY
Actually enforce interference. The neutral zone trap is illegal. As that's not really a rule change, I'd also add no touch icing.
