1. No
2. Yes it's absolutely insane that there is a completely different position in different leagues
3. Not a huge fan of that.
4. No idea
5. I am a fan of an playoff but I am excited to see people bitch about how arbitrary 8 vs 9 selection is. Hell 6 vs9 or 4 vs 9 could be completely dumbfounding.
6. Yes
7. Yes
8. No. The coin flp is perfectly fair, and you shouldn't just give the home team that big of an advantage.

1. NBA: Declare That Any Defensive Contact Made Without An Effort To Contest A Shot Is A Foul


Completely agree. Not sure why people are so against this one. Seeing someone going for the goal and then sliding in front of them is not a fvcking basketball move. It's taking advantage of a rule. Get rid of the rule, get rid of the majority of ridiculous charges.

2. MLB: Universalize The Designated Hitter


Yea, I don't even watch baseball but can't believe there are some teams that have a different position than others.

quote:

3. NFL: Make Pass Interference A 15-Yard Penalty


Absolutely. Lol at some of you thinking you'll never see another deep pass. Do some of you watch college ball? Someone said it best where it needs to be like the old facemask penalty, 15 yards if incidental and spot if the dude just bends the receiver over. Automatic spot foul for 50-50 judgement calls from the ref is horseshite.

4. NHL: Implement “Hybrid Icing”


Idk what that means

5. NCAA Football: Create An Eight-Team Playoff Format


Duh

quote:

6. NBA: No More Advancing The Ball To Half-Court After A Timeout


If I'm trying to make the rules more fair, duh. If I want to maintain excitement, no way. I wouldn't care if they kept it or changed it, can see either side.

7. MLB: Allow Managers To Challenge Plays


Duh

quote:

8. NFL: Always Give The Home Team The Ball First In Overtime


No, why?

quote:

9. NHL: Eliminate Delay Of Game On Pucks Sent Out Of The Defensive Zone


Idk what this means

quote:

10. NBA: Eliminate Foul-Outs


Duh. Why are so many against this? Like some mentioned, after a certain number you could make it like a technical where you got 2 shots and the ball. Also, there would still be legit techs if someone was being a good and I'd still have players be ejectable if they get 2 techs. Fouling a player out is moronic.
