Why would it get more bloated? I don’t think anyone wants more challenges, just being allowed to challenge more things (read: anything). Didn’t the CFL do this and not see any noticeable increase in game length?

Because if I can get away with DPI that blatant I’m telling my guys to go full on Longest Yard melee from there on out.

True, they did, but the degree to which the DPI was so much more egregious and blatant isn’t even comparable. I don’t like it but you can convince me on “letting them play” when the could are tough to catch or ticky-tack. But that? You couldn’t draw a better example of DPI. 

That entire officiating crew should be fired and banned from any level of football, hell, any sport. Penalties are part of football but Jesus Christ, that’s the textbook definition of DPI. 

It doesn’t exist.

lol Trump supporters are infinitely more “cry baby”ish than anyone else on this planet. You’re driven by nothing but emotions and fear mongering and triggered by literally everything, your post being proof of that. Go play in traffic, troll.

You Trump supporters, like your Dear Leader, love to just lie through your teeth every chance you get.

You know the worst Bama fans imaginable. Jalen is a legend in Tuscaloosa IMO. One of the greatest to ever play for this program.

Goodbye, sweet prince. I’ll root for you wherever you go. Go’on, Jalen!

It’s not that I don’t understand people that hate the “sports fandom” culture, even I recognize it gets pretty ridiculous. But I can never tell if this is a snarky sports site (which I love) or The Onion for sports haters, ‘cause the latter sometimes crops up in the comments.

And what do teams that draft first and reach for QBs have? Bad management and bad talent. I thought Baker did pretty well in Cleveland this season but I can only imagine what getting drafted by, say, New Orleans and sitting behind Brees for a season or two or three and then taking over the offense would’ve done for…

Holy shit, look at all the posting you’re doing about this topic. Username checks out. Get some help.

He went full Kirby on that one. You can’t fake a FG if the other team doesn’t respect your kicker, Nick.

Sometimes Deadspin feels like a sports website with a nice snarky bent. Sometimes it feels like the sports version of The Onion and people are actually posting here that don’t even like (or even hate) sports. It’s a little weird. Still here for the writers.

Holy shit, no one that uses “we” when talking about the team they root for thinks they’re on or part of the team you moron.

Can’t run fake FGs if the other team doesn’t respect the kicker.

I’ll never understand why so many people here get up in arms about this.

No, it doesn’t. I’m so tired of NFL teams ruining young QBs by trying to force them into starting roles at 21 or 22. The NFL is a different, much faster game, and guys aren’t even at their physical peak at that age. Draft guys like this, let them sit behind a good veteran for a couple years, then plug them in. Set…

Sadly no, because a lot of gamers live vicariously through characters’ sex lives because their social anxiety prevents them from finding such satisfaction IRL.

Serious question: How do you Trump supporters manage to put clothes on in the morning? Pants must be difficult with an IQ of 8.
