NaPolian8693 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Kickoffs mean extra commercial breaks so they aren't going to want to do away with them entirely. Also you need to the option to onside kick. They view punts as safe enough, so maybe they could punt it off from the 40 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardyBoy Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Am I the only person who almost stopped watching football after Kevin Everett's injury? I can't be the only one was deeply impacted by that injury, which happened on a kickoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Number 76 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) Am I the only person who almost stopped watching football after Kevin Everett's injury? I can't be the only one was deeply impacted by that injury, which happened on a kickoff. Watched that with my sister at a bar in Chicago (not Lincoln Station--the other one, the one that's a pretend biker bar most of the time--Delilah's or something?). As soon as it happened, I gave her a hug because we both were disturbed about the hit, and told her to finish her drink because we had plenty of time to go to Lincoln Station before resumption of play. Neither of us wanted to see the replay, much less watch the carting-off, etc. It was completely effed up, and we knew instantly that the kid was DONE. I'm happy he can walk. No, you're not the only one. Edited August 23, 2011 by Offsides Number 76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
