changes for 2012

so, another season almost over for most of us...here's a couple of changes I'd like to see for 2012 and beyond:

1. a facemask is a facemask...the runner can pretty much punch you in the face and as long as he doesn't grasp the facemask, it's all good...where as the defender even touches the helmet and it gets called. I'd like to see it one way or the other.

2. a penalty is a penalty. I've always hated how if you are too close to the endzone, a penalty is half the distance. I think they should march off all penalties up to the one yard line, regardless of how close you are. Get a 10 yard penalty at the 11 yard line, you go to the 1...get a 10 yard penalty at the 9 yard line, you go to the 1. 10 yard penalty from the 12 get's you to the 2...not half the distance.

3. let's take the soccer out of football. I'd like to see a penalty for these fricken wide receivers that don't make the catch and all come up pleading for an interference call. If it's interference fine, call it, but if not, I'd like to see the receiver get an unsportsmanlike penalty or something.

thoughts....additions?

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
