For that matter, only players on the field should be allowed to call timeout, and the timeout should be assessed as soon as it's called. None of this bullshit where an NFL coach can whisper to the ref to call a timeout right before the clock hits zero.

For all the DH haters it's coming to the National League. According to Jayson Stark it could happen as early as 2014, but more likely 2015. With so much inter-league play now and the push from the player's union it's going to happen.

this too.

Hitting a ball out of bounds costing me penalty strokes in golf. Where the game originated you couldn't drive the ball OOB without putting it in a taxi cab.

The worst thing in sports is No instant reply in some situations, causing for drastic change in outcomes when everybody knows it shouldn't have been.

We have the technology now days to insert instant reply everywhere, and/or have officials calling things from the booth or a digital scoreboard.
There is no need for officials to be on the field anymore trying to call things in real time. Technology has caught up so much that there wouldn't even delay the game.

What's roughing the passer for Pey Pey is not what's roughing the passer for any random Chiefs or Browns QB. Pey Pey gets a hand graze on the shoulder pad the same instant the ball leaves his hand it's 15 yards and automatic first. Random Chiefs or Browns QB can get hit 3 seconds after the play helmet to helmet and have to leave for a series and it's a great defensive play.

Alright I'm exaggerating a bit but I'm not that far off either.

1.) The stupid new kickoff rules in the NFL suck the fun out of a potentially exciting event

2.) I really hate the "changing" rules in the NBA depending on player or what time of the game it is. Why is something a foul in the first quarter not a foul in the last seconds. That makes no sense. A foul is a foul.

All the foul rules in basketball. I hate how a guy can just stand there and get run over and have a foul called him, or vice versa. The refs are totally inconsistent on how they call it. Fouls, in general, are just called way too frequently. It slows the game down to the point of making it unwatchable for me.

Dayze 05-31-2013 08:33 AM
good point on kickoffs.

the fact that kickers can kick the ball 10 yards past the endzone 90% of the time drives me nuts.

Just start at the 20 FFS at that point.

I'm walking the 8th batter and pitching to the pitcher every time. You can call that idiotic, but I call it good strategy.

This one is easy!

It HAS to be the idiotic offsides rule in soccer. If they eliminated that rule, you would see 10-7 games instead of 0-0. Americans would embrace soccer.

Or they deserve to keep playing until someone wins the damn game.

The rule that allows the Hunt family to own an NFL franchise is pretty depressing.

There's a lot of inconsistencies in basketball. Especially the NBA. Stars get calls that scrubs don't get. I've seen so many "and 1s" where the scorer wasn't even touched.
