Move the extra point farther back?

i think the point of the PAT is that it is an automatic 1 point, but a tempting, much more challenging 2 points. i mean, the northwestern game was exponentially more interesting because of the 2 point conversion attempt.

maybe pat's make more sense when you think about the history of the game (before the forward lateral) and when you think about a time before overtime.

i think the system is fine the way it is. is should be an automatic one point, more challenging two-points and every once in a while it is blocked or missed and that has a huge impact.

it is like a free throw, just another opportunity to score; but it is pointless to compare different sports because they all have their nuances and quirks that do not make sense in any other context except the game in which it exists.

if you really wanted to know, though, youre best bet is probably to get up from the desk, gather 21 friends, head out to the field and try to knock anything though the uprights.

It would probably be easier for you to just get Matt to register so he can explain it! From a physics standpoint, I don't understand it. I'm not doubting what he is saying, I just don't understand it based on the clarifications made.

Maybe I will do this 21 friends thing. Kicking is kinda fun, after all.

In golf they'd let you try another putt from, say, 20 feet to shave a stroke off the hole.

This is the best idea of 2010. People should just stop thinking for the rest of the year, nothing will beat this.
