I would expect the number of "minor injuries" to increase as a way to subvert that type of rule. There's no way they could make a pitcher stay in there if he said his arm felt funny.

If an injury, they just give up IBB until the 3 batter requirement is fulfilled. I'm not if favor of a DH for pitchers, they can only be hit for by a pinch hitter. But I am in favor of a designated defensive player and a designated hitter in his spot in the line-up, and the DF could pinch run in 5 of the 9 innings and each extra inning. This would allow us to enjoy the great fielding and baserunning skills of those that are hitting challenged. After Sept. 1st you can have as many as you want on the roster, but only 22 are allowed on the line-up card for each game.

Last weekend was in New Orleans for 3 beautiful days in the mid 60's, then cruise ship to Cozumel and Merida in Mexico with sunny temps about 80. Was snorkeling with some beautiful fish and water when it was below zero at home. Got back just as the last snow was melting off the driveway and today was sunny and in the 60's. Picked the right week to do that!

So is anyone that didn't like the game because it was marked by triumph of scheme, tactics, and strategy excited for baseball season?

Scheme, tactics, and strategy utilizing the talent on your team to rise to execute it is what I enjoy most about watching sports.

Do you put looking off the safety and seeing which defenders are going with what receivers a game managing skill or a QB talent?

I think the 2 weeks to prepare benefits the defensive schemes more than the offense, and the offenses may get a little rusty also.

Poor performances do not make it a bad game, especially when it is between two good teams for all the marbles.

Since there have been two conference championships, how many times has even one went to OT?

How do you line up offsides? That’s worse than the Bears kicker missing from 43

That's 2 different problems, brain cramp vs failure to execute.

Do you think the refs called it a muff because that would make it an auto review when they didn't see him touch it and now on the review there will be no clear evidence to overturn. So in effect they called it on the field contrary to what they really thought?
