Other Sports What is the worst rule in all of sports, in your opinion?

Let's hear em?

I'll post mine in my next post as to not sway this thread one way or another in the OP.

Defensive Pass Interference is getting there, but for me it's the DH.

I can't stand it, I know it makes for more exciting baseball, but I feel like baseball should be, you want to bat, you need to field a position.

That NFL games actually have to be played in Qualcomm Stadium a minimum of 8 times a year.

Why are you wasting your time trying burning a Chargers fan or the Chargers?

I already know we're irrelevant and that we suck balls.

Still bummed about the lowering the head rule.

I think Baseball needs a MLB to rush the pitcher
maybe the shortstop can pass block

it would make baseball fun

Seriously? I hate the rule that pitchers have to hit. Sorry, but I don't want to watch innings end with a catcher getting walked to get to a pitcher. Or a final inning where you have to pull from the bottom of your bench to grab a pinch hitter. It's like forcing your kicker to play receiver.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 05-30-2013, 10:22 PM

The DH is a horrific rule. It gives the AL a massive advantage.

Ceej · 05-30-2013, 10:23 PM

The entire BCS.

But watching the pitcher hit is too boring.

God forbid that baseball players be required to actually field a position, run the bases, throw a ball, and hit.

Right now the ice hockey delay of game penalty. If a player sends the puck directly off of the ice it is 2 minutes. It has been called many times. I have yet to see it be the correct call.

**notorious** · 05-30-2013, 10:24 PM

Outside the tackles.

I don't hate the rule, I hate the way they call it.

Defensive holding. It's a bailout call.

**wazu** · 05-30-2013, 10:24 PM

The DH. Just goes against the spirit of the game. There might be screwier rules out there for other sports, but none are as far-reaching and game-changing.
