The fact of the matter is that if these same arguments were used 100 years ago, and accepted, football would be about as popular as lacrosse right now.

There's no reason to be afraid of innovation. Go back and watch a football game from the 40's. Look at how ****ing boring it is.
BS. There are no rules being changed. The A-11 has been, and will continue to be an illegal formation that is only allowed on the high school level because the refs choose not to penalize them for running a scrimmage kick formation as a full-time offensive formation. There are no pissed off programs or traditional powerhouse football teams doing anything at all about the A-11. They don't ****ing care because it's a high school gimmick kick formation. The A-11 is not innovation. There's no future for it in American football. It's not even possible to implement in college or the pros.
