All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Goodell may or not be evil , but I was under the assumption that the NFL rules committee was responsible for the change .
For what it's worth, I don' like it either.
They're hindering the chances for seeing some of the most exciting plays of the game.

Pussified NFL. 14 padded practices for the entire regular season. No kick returns. Can barely touch the QB, no hitting a defenseless receiver. Starting to lose interest.
What really needs to disappear is the new every touch down reviewed thing. It just slows the game down, and when a touch down is obvious, it just makes the refs look foolish. JMO
doesn't really bother me
growing up the kickoff was always at the 35 yard line
hummmm. I go back a bit further (per-1974 I believe), when the kickoff was at the 40. Because touchbacks had become increasingly common, it was moved back to the 35, and to the 30 in the earlier 90's. Those rule changes were to keep the excitement of the KR in the game. Alas, now to be an era gone by.....

I agree! They took away one of the most exciting plays in a football game and basically made it pointless. Most teams are just going to have their kicker kick the crap out of it, so it goes out of the end zone now. It really sucks!
