What realistic sports rule would you change?

**carolinakid** · 10-07-20, 08:11 PM

the main problem the clock stop too much in the nfl.

**jjgold** · 10-07-20, 08:11 PM

Reduce timeouts nba

**Judge Crater** · 10-07-20, 08:13 PM

I always liked the Arena Football rule that in the last minute you had to make forward progress or the clock stops ( no kneeling).

**PAULYPOKER** · 10-07-20, 08:18 PM

All NFL/NCCAF kickers/punters have to be HOT azz fukk women..

9's+ only, may apply!

No exceptions......

**Allure** · 10-07-20, 08:18 PM

No field goals and extra point attempts in NFL

**Tanko** · 10-07-20, 08:21 PM

Eliminate DH in baseball forever.

**beavis13** · 10-07-20, 08:22 PM

NFL pass interference goes to college rules and isn’t spotted where the interference happened.

**MinnesotaFats** · 10-07-20, 08:23 PM

NFL- no more unlimited PI. It's a 10 yard illegal contact. No more UC/ Roughing the passer if he's throwing the ball. He's going to get hit, unless it's with malicious intent.

MLB- no more challenges. The beauty of the game is its imperfections. I would also implement a 14 man game day roster, meaning, you have 8 position players, 1 starter, 1 dh, 1 utility man and 3 relievers max (4 in NL due to pitcher hitting). No more 3 batter min, etc. That will speed things up, trust me...

NHL- goalie pads and equipment need to be reduced in size

NBA- hand check rule and illegal defense. Let them play zone and let them defend. Also no more challenges/ replay.

**Enikk** · 10-07-20, 08:24 PM

Get rid of 3 batter minimum rule baseball and go back to way it has always been.

**KRIT** · 10-07-20, 08:26 PM

Allow college basketball to advance the ball to the front court with a timeout near the end of games.

**Enikk** · 10-07-20, 08:27 PM

Foul tip caught is an out whether it is on strike one or on strike 2. It hits the bat and is caught it should be an out.

**Mr KLC** · 10-07-20, 08:30 PM

Umpires stop calling the balls and strikes. That damn machine is a lot smarter than you all.

**mjsuax13** · 10-07-20, 08:31 PM

Spiking the football. Should force them to run a real play.

**pologq** · 10-07-20, 08:31 PM

a lot of good responses so i am adding:

i would have computerized strike zones in mlb.

i would eliminate roughing the passer unless it is a malicious hit and then it is a personal foul.

i would make the nhl only give a point for ties after the OT, not after the 3rd period.

**mjsuax13** · 10-07-20, 08:31 PM

PGA: same golf ball for everyone.

**cincinnatikid513** · 10-07-20, 08:32 PM

extra point time out, kick off time out

**Judge Crater** · 10-07-20, 08:32 PM

Have two different types of PI calls
Minor is 5 yards, 1st down
Major is the way it is now
No more 45 yard ticky tack penalties

You know damn well the sportsbook industry will never let that happen especially now as most books are legal crooks.

Judge, you have some really good ones. I vote to pay you Goodell’s $50 million

LOL...

**maggiethebestdog** · 10-07-20, 08:45 PM

Lots of good ones so far, but the list is endless

OT in NFL is like college, only start at the 35 yd line - they played 4 quarters already so field position should not be a factor - no ties

College football down without contact - utterly ridiculous

College hoops over either 10 or 12 fouls is 2 shots PLUS possession - the fouling at the end of games makes a mockery out of the game

Less timeouts in all hoops

**maggiethebestdog** · 10-07-20, 08:47 PM

If you allow hand fighting in football pass plays, you can't call it on the guy that wins

Either allow them both hand contact and the winner wins, or call it on both guys

**pavyracer** · 10-07-20, 08:50 PM

Players can touch the ball with their hands in soccer.

**Judge Crater** · 10-07-20, 08:51 PM

Allow some type of offensive holding on kickoffs

**DrunkHorseplayer** · 10-07-20, 08:52 PM

Eliminate timeouts in all sports.

NFL

Clock only stop on dead balls inside last 2:00 of each half.

Both teams have one timeout per half.

**cincinnatikid513** · 10-07-20, 09:10 PM

change nfl ot rules ties are dumb

**goduke** · 10-07-20, 09:25 PM

Pass interference is 15 yards not spot of the foul
Defensive holding is not an automatic first down
Offensive holding is 5 yards instead of 10

**goduke** · 10-07-20, 09:26 PM

Also bring back normal onside kicks or eliminate onside kicks altogether if you can’t

**Judge Crater** · 10-07-20, 09:27 PM

**Seaweed** · 10-07-20, 10:27 PM
