That I will agree with.

I also hate sudden death NFL overtime and can't wait for playoff overtime rules to become regular season rules. It drives me nuts that one team can lose a game so often without ever once holding the ball on offense.

Is that scheduled to happen or is it still Playoffs only for now?

Edit: wait, isn't that already how it is?

Most people who dislike the DH are NL fans.

I hate knee-downs in football. I think they should be required to advance the ball and if they don't make positive yardage, the clock run-down doesn't start for that play. I want to see 60 minutes of football, not 57. I guess I'm okay if the team on offense is up by 2 touchdowns but if we're talking about a 21-18 game, nobody should be kneeling. Play the game.

Another rule I despise is college rules for the restricted area under the basket.

To get called for the charge, you should be at least in the way of the basket, not standing underneath it

Also lowering the mound was dumb.

Let's face it. The dumbest rule of any sport (don't know why it just came to me) is the stupid-ass soccer rule to not have a clock for stoppage time.

How ****ing hard is it to show you exactly how much time is left in a game.

I'm sorry, but when you recruit a basketball center, you factor in how they will defend vs. score vs. rebound, etc.... When you recruit a pitcher, their ability to hit is 0% of what they are asked to do, nor should it ever be more than 0%. It is the one position in all of sports where you ask a player to do something entirely outside of what they are recruited to do. It is like asking a kicker to play linebacker or a goalie to play offense.

The result is that you have complete doofuses sitting in the batter's box and the best you can do is to teach them to bunt. You might as well just throw the at bat away.
Funny, I was under the impression that you recruited baseball players. Some of those players just happen to be better at pitching than hitting. Dave Winfield was a converted pitcher. Jason Motte was a converted catcher. Mariano Rivera and K-Rod were shortstops.

Why don't you ask the 2006 Detroit Tigers how important fielding their position is to pitchers? If Kyle Lohse doesn't get a bunt down in the 10th inning of Game 6, the Cardinals don't eventually win that game and the World Series.

Paying some beer swilling **** like Jim Thome to sit in the video room for 3.5 hours a night and then look at 20 pitches while at bat four times is a hell of a sight farther away from "baseball" than a hitting pitcher.

I don't like the instigator rule in the NHL, but pass interference that can be marked as a 40 yard penalty is just ridiculous. Roughing the passer is getting a bit out of hand as well.

The new rule about head lowering should be annoying.

I've never understood the hostility towards the NFL pass interference rule. It makes sense that you'd be penalized with a spot foul on that. The college version is asinine.
