Sizing up

[SamTheRam]

There once was a Seinfeld episode where a midget actor "sized up" by wearing lifts in his shoes. I just heard Mel Kuyper go on and on about concerns over Robert Griffith III only being 6'0". My question is threefold...

1. How hard would it be to make a cleat that gives a player an extra inch or inch and a half of height?

2. Would it greatly affect said player's ability to run and maneuver?

3. Would this be legal by NFL rules?

It would really mess with someones center of gravity and probably increase ankle sprains.

griffin measured in at a little over 6'2 so......

Didn't Clausen as well? Clausen is shorter than 6'2.

clausen actually measured in at 6'3 at the combine.

i seriously doubt they exaggerate those measurements. clausen wasn't bad because he was short. he was bad because he wasn't any good.

[Donald LaFell]

That sounds like a REALLY bad idea even for a QB.

[Montsta]

Plus Clausen has a really low delivery, that's why it is so easy to bat down his passes.

Hell why not just send them out in high heels?

why don't we make the glove finger tips longer with some type of flesh covered rigid polycarbonate, so their hands appear bigger, and they can cover 450% more area than the un-super-glove equipped receiver? surely roger would approve

James Harrison got... nevermind...

Sounds gay. I'm sure they wouldn't let it fly.

If any pro sport/athletes implement something like this, it would definitely be basketball long before football.
