If OhioChatter was given the power to create sports laws, what would you propose to pass?

- Only one team per city

- 2 preseason games. They should also just be HS scrimmage format

- Abolish Nascar and Indy racing. Its a waste of gas.

- Cut down baseball to 100 games

- Pitchers are placed on a timer for each pitch. If they go over the timer the batter is awarded a ball.

- If a fan leaves a game early without an emergency excuse, he/she shall be banned from that stadium for a year. (except in baseball)

- Batters can only call one timeout per appearance at plate. If they go over 1 they are given a strike.

- College football goes to a 12 team playoff. Use the BCS to determine the 12 teams and seed accordingly. Championship game is a bowl game. Losers in other playoff rounds play in a bowl game. Teams that don't make the playoffs can still play in the bowl games. Everyone is a winner

- Cut down NBA playoffs to 12 teams. First series is best of 3. In the first rd (best of 3 series) the higher seed gets all 3 home games. This will prevent teams from tanking the season and prevent teams with being content with the 5 or 6 seed. All games will be played back to back.

- No more judge sports at the Olympics. If they can't figure out a scoring system then goodbye Olympics.

- Buying tickets, then not going because of the weather. 1 year ban

- Abolish the kiss cam

- No more wedding proposals at the game. No one gives a fuck about your proposal.

- If you waste a beer, you have to buy your whole row a beer, or choose to be kicked in the balls.

- If a fan is caught speaking on their cell phone during a game for over 30 seconds, anyone in his/her proximity may take the phone and smash it.

- No more pink jerseys ladies. Support your team's real colors or GTFO. We get it you are a girl.

- Along the same page. No more dumb ass hats. Oh nice neon green Indians hat, when did they wear that?

- If you bring a sign to a game it has to be creative. A creative inspector will be at the gate to inspect all signs and if he/she feels it is not creative he/she may confiscate the sign and burn it.

- Fat people have to purchase two seats and sit at the fat people designated area.

- Fans should be able to bring their own food/alcohol to games, unless the stadium drops it down to a reasonable price.

- Separate section for parents and their kids. If they do not want to sit in that section then they have to sign a waiver stating they won't bitch and moan about other fans cussing.

lol

I'm pretty sure pitchers have a 14-second count once stepping on the mound, or rubber, or something. But I'm pretty sure there is a rule around this already.

Anyone using the term "real fan" would be banned from watching sports for life.

Intentional walks, the batter gets 3 bags, and the pitcher has to finsih the game in a pink dress.

End of NBA games, intentional fouls get 2 FTs and the ball, the player giving the foul is awarded 2 fouls. If said player was at 5 fouls, the other coach can detirmine the player the extra foul goes to. I am sick of the last 2 min of NBA games taking an hour.

I am talking about as soon as the batter steps in the box lol.

Not that the umpires ever call it but didn't an Indians pitcher a season or two ago get a balk or something because he took too long between pitches?

Any male at the game caught ordering something other than a hot dog, nachos, popcorn, a beer or soda shall have to use the women's restroom for the remainder of the game.

Yeah beatancourt. They only did it because jim leyland bitched tho. It takes a manager to bitch for them to enforce it, but my rule is different. Maybe i should expand on it. I am proposing setting up a pitch clock (just like a shot clock) and it starts ticking as soon the batter steps in the box.

I was supporting the league's don't drink and drive campaign.

OK I will amend my proposed law to include Italian Sausage and/or Bratwurst. But now I am done.

I think I remember something like that happening. It would have been Rafael Betencourt, dude took forever. I'd also say the batter has to get his ass in the box and be ready to hit if the pitcher has to be ready to pitch.

So says the guy who the rule makes fun of, lol. Had no idea it was such a touchy subject for you. Also according to the new forum rules you're walking on thin ice.

If you choose to leave your seat more then once during play then you are not allowed to return. You can go in and out of your seat as much as you want during halftime inbetween innings but not during play.

Managers no longer wear uniforms in MLB, and coaches in the NFL can wear suits. Should be a new law.

- If you play in a Head-to-Head fantasy league the higher seed in the playoffs should be spotted 10-15 pts. Not in the championship though.

- No more 2-3-2 format in the NBA finals. The 3 home games for the lower seeded team can be a huge advantage.

Hmm sounds like a bad experience in FF.

City BBQ at Clippers games

The food rule needs to allow pizza.

A fan vote, taken at the end of each season, can impeach a commissioner.

why so much hate for baseball in your rules?
