People need to get the idea that "special teams" is anything more than a convenient term out of their heads.. it isn't even mentioned in the 2011 rules (the pdf on nfl.com) except in one spot regarding helmet radios. The reason to say "offensive touches" is to differentiate between kickoff returns and punt returns and also as a "gotcha" to GoChiefs later in case it was needed... that is how I am interpreting it at least. Either way... let's agree to disagree on point #1.. the SALIENT point for me is #2) Do you honestly think GoChiefs wouldn't harp on the "official rule" if he were on the other side of the bet? I think he would, therefore THAT is what should be counted. If it were someone who clearly wouldn't try to weasel any type of win, but instead had an ounce of integrity.. then I wouldn't really have an opinion either way. |

How about this. Not here it isn't. HERE it means what the rulebook says... offensive touches include kickoff returns. Suck that.

FYI, not that I really care, but the rulebook does NOT state that offensive touches include kickoff returns.
A kickoff is not a scrimmage kick. That's a punt...or a field goal....an actual play from scrimmage. Quote:

You need to provide a sig, DBOSHO. That's not my responsibility.

8 touches for DMC today.
He needs 15 in the season finale for BossChief to win. Kudos to the little bastard for making a huge play for the first time this year.

Wasn't the reason you thought he wouldn't get that many touches based on the fact that you didn't think he could stand up to the punishment? If that's the case, it doesn't matter how he got his hands on the ball. He can clearly take the hits.
(Not talking about the bet, just your assessment of him.)

Who knows what he becomes, but I would think he improves if he gets a QB that can hit him in stride. |
