Goodell considering eliminating extra points· Page 2

They don't matter until they do:

You can also look to the Lions and Eagles game this year where the weather was so bad the two teams couldn't kick and had to go for two every time. That was entertaining, but you lose that if the extra point is automatic.

Quite frankly, just fuck off Goodell. There are so many issues that need sorting and this isn't even remotely close to one of them. They don't take away from any other plays in the game. And if you are worried about something being almost automatic, how the flying fuck does making it wholly automatic fix it?

I would be okay with Zero's suggestion of moving it 10 yards further away. I would be okay with forcing teams to go for two every time. But automatic extra points? No. This isn't NFL Blitz (unless we get the late hits too).

Don't have any problem with them removing the extra point, and still allowing teams to go for 2 if they want. Taking 1 point if that fails.

TD - Commercial - extra point - commercial - Defense - commercial TD play games.

Along with removing the Xtrapoint, they should create 4pt FG for >55 yards.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Simply GIVING a team a point is asinine XFL rules. This is the NFL where EVERY INCH is supposed to matter.

beast (9-Dec) : I think the drum was with the tomahawk chop for a long time, just they're trying to stop the chop but keeping the drum

Mucky Tundra (9-Dec) : Seattle has a tough one: GB, Minnesota, @Chicago and @LA Rams

Mucky Tundra (9-Dec) : Rams schedule is favorable to make a run: @San Fran, @NYJ, Arizona and Seattle

beast (9-Dec) : With a game like that, the Rams might win the NFC West.

beast (9-Dec) : Bills WR jumped back into the Rams DB, WRs need to learn that trick again and get those PI calls on important moments like that

Mucky Tundra (9-Dec) : That should be the dagger for the Rams
