I have a bad feeling we aint going to see a 2011 season for the NFL.

With these new rules:

ILLEGAL HITS
NFL to be more aggressive with suspensions for illegal hits next season. Rules defining defenseless players expanded to eight categories:

• QB in act of throwing
• Receiver trying to catch pass
• Runner in grasp with forward progress stopped
• Player fielding punt or kickoff
• Kicker or punter during kick
• QB after change of possession
• Receiver who receives blind-side block
• Player already on ground

KICKOFF CHANGES?
• Competition committee will propose moving kickoff to 35-yard line, and bringing touchback out to 25. No changes for touchbacks on any other plays, with ball coming out to 20.
• No player other than kicker would be allowed to line up more than 5 yards behind ball.
• Outlawing wedge on kickoffs; all blocking wedges were reduced to two players in 2009.

I could care less if I ever see another NFL game again. The league is turning into one big vagina.

The BCS is just as bad if not worse!!!!

BTW, the last NFL Strike was in 1987.

Haha... nice. At least in college football the individual games themselves are entertaining to watch, but the determining of a champion is painful at best.
