The NFL is adding little white handkerchiefs which will be worn on each hip of all eligible ball carriers. Grabbing and removing either one of these will replace tackling, to reduce injuries. All players engaged in blocking will be required to wear sumo outfits. Any player not wearing a sumo outfit who frightens the quarterback will be suspended without pay for four weeks.
Actually, the first part is okay because NFL players can't tackle worth crap anyway. If you want decent tackling you have to watch college football.
True enough. Arena ball is pretty rough also or at least appears so when a player lands in your lap.
ReplyDeletemayeb because college players are iffy in terms of a "career" in football, so they have nothing to lose by actually playing.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I could be wrong.
