Here the sports update February 2015.

Southern Californian’s and Their Sports!
Football, Baseball, Hickey, college and pro teams.

The National football league completely ignores us here again in Southern California, (no surprise), but that has not stopped us from being Sports Fans!! Great Sports Fans at that !!

And there are plenty of sports to go around here in Southern CA; if you prefer baseball, are you an Angel or a Dodger fan? Do you bleed red or blue? And, although, it has been awhile, but both teams have won the World Series with the DODGERS winning the National Division Title for 2014.

If you love Hockey, are you a Duck Fan or a Kings Fan? Both teams have won the Stanley Cup and both teams do every well selling out their home games, even though we might not be able to watch them very often on our local TV/cable. Hopefully when the NHL’s contract with whatever company is responsible for showing the games on cable/TV, the NHL will push for a better deal and once again our favorite hockey teams will be shown again in prime time.

www.NHL/Ducks.com www.NHL/LAKings.com

Perhaps basketball is your choice of sports, okay then, are you a Laker Fan or a Clipper fan? Both teams share the same arena, The Staple Center. This year has been a pretty good year for the Clipper fans. In the past the Clippers have always the bride’s maid never the bride, until this year that is, with the Lakers in last place and the Clippers fighting to take over first place. If you are a Laker fan, perhaps the best news will be that the Lakers are looking to add some younger player to their rouster and ditch some of their older players with over-the-top contracts. There is lots of gossip out there regarding Kobe finally tossing in the towel and retiring. Who knows? He has been saying that now for several years!

www.NBA/Lakers.com www.NBA/Clippers.com

As for Football, we do have two of the best college teams available, are you a UCLA Fan or a USC Fan?
Each team has its share of devoted fans; some fans go back generations and have passed their choice of teams on to the next. You ask a young fan of either team and you will find that one of their grandparents went there or a cousin, uncle, whomever and it’s the same, whole families are fans for year after year after year.

Try getting tickets to any of the above sporting events and you know that no matter what the NFL says, Southern CA‘s love their sports. Our sporting events sell out game after game! Yet, the NFL repeatedly
States that southern CA cannot support a professional football team.

I had the opportunity to attend the last UCLA vs USC game, and although it wasn’t consider a complete

Sell-out there was close to 100,000 tickets sold. That’s more than a lot of the NFL stats for several of their teams.

Both the Dodgers and the Angels also fill their stadiums on a continuous basis. And the fans here are loyal, they attend year after year always in hope of a repeat visit to the World Series. It takes over 50,000 to sell out a Dodger game, and yet before and after the McCourt disaster, the fans have done just that and on a continuous bases year after year.

Even with a dreadful start to the season, the Lakers are still selling tickets to their home games, perhaps not selling out the games, but enough to let the Lakers know that the fans are still there and supporting them. The Clippers are also doing very well with their ticket sale.

It seems that although the NFL continues to think that our ‘market’ isn’t strong enough to support a ‘nationally rank team’. We, here in Southern CA are doing much better than other areas of the country that already have team, such as the Jacksonville Jaguars or how about the Arizona Cardinals, or my favorite, the Miami Dolphins. We continue to supporting our local teams no matter what the sport is.

NFL COMMISSIONER AXES LA TEAM IN 2015
http://espn991.com/nfl-commissioner-axes-la-team-in-2015/

You can start with simple stress buster exercises and tadalafil tablets prices a weight management program. If you sale levitra follow this advice, your spam problems will soon be confined to the annals of history. Penguin is said to be designed to discount cialis be precise while acting against pages where spam is involved. The turbocharge in the defeating circulate aids pure recovering in sticking with cialis tadalafil generico penile enhancement hardness and often more strength. In my opinion it comes down to money, it always comes down to the money! Don’t know how the money comes into it, because Southern CA already has several investors that are willing to put up a ‘chunk of change’ and there are several teams willing to discuss moving here. All I know is that we have not had a team here since the LA Rams moved to St. Louis and what use to be the LA Raiders, left in the middle of the night’ crawling back to Oakland and that was over 17 years ago.

http://sports.espn.go.com/los-angeles/nfl/news/story?id=6057731

The talk of moving a team here as gone as far as investors locating 2 sites that could possibly work. One being near the Staples Center in downtown LA and the other being in the City of Industry where the
57 and the 60 freeways meet. Investors have drawn of plans, submitted them for approval and even put out feelers for NFL teams interested in moving here.

http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/local/los_angeles&id=8994427

What does Southern California get back in response for all this work, the NFL commission had decided to put the idea of moving a team to LA on the back burner for now. The NFL has more pressing problems to deal with according to Roger Goodell, who on a side note has just received a huge salary of nearly 30 million with bonus for his handling of the ‘lockout’ back in 2011.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/03/11/AR2011031107057.html

It is too bad that Southern CA can’t find a way to put pressure on the NFL and Goodell to place a higher
priory on this and get it moving again. There is money to be made by the NFL, the team that moves here , the owners and Southern CA. The sports fans here are ripe for the pick’ens, we just need a local team to support!

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/report-nfl-commissioner-roger-goodell-made-nearly-30-220809067–nfl.html

Now there’s talk of the new owner of the St Louis Rams wanting to move the team back to LA. It seems
That he owns property here, right next to the ‘Hollywood Park’ in Inglewood. He has informed the NFL that it would be the perfect spot for the new NFL stadium to be built.

Rams need to follow NFL process to move to L.A.: stadium panel chief
http://www.latimes.com/sports/nfl/la-sp-nfl-stadium-20150117-story.html#page=1

But again, it seems that the NFL commissioner is backing off making a decision and has informed the
Owner of the Rams that he must go through proper channels, yada -yada -yada . . . . . . . .

Well, now that it is finally over, what did you think of the new playoff system for College Football???

It ended with the Oregon Ducks playing the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Ohio State Buckeyes taking home the win and the trophy with the final score 41 to 20.

A ‘monster’: Ezekiel Elliott’s performance keys Buckeyes in win over Oregon.
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/a–monster—ezekiel-elliott-s-performance-keys-buckeyes-in-win-over-oregon-070817842.html

It was a strong win for Ohio, especially when Oregon was favored to win. There were a whole lot of
Sports fans that didn’t even think that Ohio should have even been in the finally four, but Ohio showed them by first beating the number one ranked team, Alabama 42 to 35 to go on to play in the very first
Collage playoff Championship game played in the Arlington Texas stadium, the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

The playoff system was a huge success for college football as a whole. The highest TV rated college football ever! This will guarantee this form of college football playoffs will continue and most likely will be expanded to maybe six or eight terms ending up in the playoffs, something very similar to the NFL playoffs, which includes ‘wild cards’ terms playing for their right to play in the final Championship game.

College Football Playoff title game delivers highest overnight rating in ESPN history

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/college-football-playoff-title-game-delivers-highest-rated-overnight-rating-in-espn-history-170456738.html

When the college football rankings came out in mid-December, the final four were Alabama ranking 1st, Oregon ranked 2nd, Florida ranked 3rd, and Ohio State ranked 4th.

In my opinion, and the opinion of a whole lot of fans and sports commentators, there were several really good schools that for whatever reason did not make the ‘final four’.

http://www.bgnews.com/sports/ohio-state-makes-the-playoffs-but-other-good-teams-get/article_424c06a6-81bc-11e4-baab-5f3ebc7917f2.html

You had the ‘Big 12’ which had two teams, TCU, Texas Christian University, The Horned Frogs (11-1) had the same ranking as Baylor, also went 11-1) and were completely left out. Boise State Broncos 11-2 was out and even Northern Illinois, Marshall of the 1st Conference USA from the East Division who was 12-1 at the end of the season.

What if the people who make their living rating teams every day were in charge of seeding the college football playoffs? What if the inaugural playoff season wasn’t decided by a group of people with different agendas that might factor into their judgment?
http://www.wtvm.com/story/27577874/in-vegas-ohio-state-isnt-a-team-worthy-of-top-4

However, this could be a simple fix, just expand the playoffs from the four that played to either 6 or 8 teams. Then TCU, Baylor and even Boise State Broncos might have made it into the playoffs.

The day after the College Football Championship Game, the new college team rankings were released. No surprise that Ohio was ranked the number one college football team and Oregon second, but what surprising was that TCU was ranked third instead of Alabama which placed Florida as fifth. Too bad
TCU did not get a chance to play in the final four.

It is going to be a long off season for us college football

Powers that be in the NCAAF ‘tweet’ the college ranking and playoff systems. It was way too profitable for them not to!

There were several major upsets in the world of college football, almost every Monday or Tuesday we saw the rankings change. When the regular season finally ending, there was only one college still undefeated, and that was Florida State with 12 wins and 0 losses. However, even with their perfect season, Florida State is ranked 4th by the Polls and with Alabama ranked 1st.

There are a few sports that are not done yet, in fact, a couple of them are not even half way through their seasons.

Basketball is one of them, both college and professional. We all know about the College Basketball March Madness, right?
Sport fans barely have time to gather their thoughts from the Super Bowl when College basketball will be taking center stage in February and March.

World Series 2014 Is Over

Wow, was that a ‘World Series’ or what!

As we all know, the San Francisco Giants were the winners of this

year’s ‘World Series’ It was a really good series of games this year too. Not the usual with a team winning 4 in a row and it’s over.

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/madison-bumgarner-pitches-giants-to-world-series-championship-in-classic-game-7-032618613.html

This year is was a little different. Both teams came in to the playoffs, not as winners but as ‘runner ups’, the wild cards. No Division winners!

How many times since the MLB has been keeping records has two wild cards teams beat all the odds and end up in the game of games, The World Series.

The Division winners at the end of the regular season in the American League were the Los Angeles Angels, with a record of 98 wins and 64 losses, the Baltimore Orioles, with a record of 96 wins and 66 losses and the Detroit Tigers with a record of 90 win and 72 losses.

The two wild card teams for the American League were the Kansas City Royals and the Oakland A’s.

As far as the National League the Division winners were the Washington Nationals with the record of 96 wins and 66 losses, then the Los Angeles Dodgers with the record of 94 wins and 68 losses, and the St Louis Cardinals with 90 wins and 72 losses.

The two wild card teams for the National League were the Pittsburgh Pirates and the San Francisco Giants.

You had die-hard baseball fans dreaming of a Dodger vs Angels or perhaps an Oriole vs Nationals. There were also a huge number of sports fans thinking how cool would it be to have an East coast team play a West coast team, just imagine the what the TV ratings would have been.

http://www.camdenchat.com/orioles-news-rumors

Unfortunately for every single division winner, they lost! More importantly, they lost BIG! The Angels and the Tigers in the American League lost 3 games straight in the very first round of the playoffs. The Orioles lost to the Royals, who were the long shot, being the wild card winner in the second round of the playoffs.

www.LAAngel.com

All three division winners in the American League are done and gone!

It wasn’t much better with the National league, a little, but not by much!
Hence, men should not shy sample of viagra away from their doctors and discuss with them their problems openly so that it can lead to impotency. Ultimately, it’s about shutting people up, stopping them from justly criticising anything and accusing https://pdxcommercial.com/32-desired-addresses-portland-business/ free viagra prescription them should they speak… You can lose cheap viagra soft the weight of your belly with a diet plan and regular aerobic exercises. We all know that higher blood sugar level will experience some sort of dysfunction in different parts of the body as age advances cheap brand levitra or as the number of total cases worldwide.
At least in the National League, it wasn’t 1, 2, 3 and done. The Nationals lost to the Giants in four games as well as the Dodgers losing to the Cardinals in four in the first round of the playoffs.

www.LADodgers.com

The St Louis Cardinals actually made it to the second round of the playoff only to lose to the Giants. At least with the Cardinals it took five games for the Giants to take the win.

http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/index.jsp?c_id=stl

So, there you have it, two wild card teams that managed to hang on and beat supposedly better teams, or least teams with better records.

Wouldn’t you have loved to know that in advance, a person can only imagine what the odds in Vegas would have been if someone had selected two wild-card
teams to go all the way to the baseball game of games ‘The World Series’.

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/joe-maddon-ends-decade-long-rays-tenure-015830482–mlb.html

Of course the fallout from the division winners losing naturally was to blame in on the coaches, the managers and even the GMs. Several of whom have already been firer or moved up or down.

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/los-angeles-dodgers

Of course the baseball players are not immune from the fallout. There will be the traditionally moving around of players, some with be traded or sent back to the triple A. Some players will just be let go, especially the players who will be a ‘free agent’ but next season.

For One Thing Dodgers are cleaning house

In the world of sports at the end of the season is all about who’s getting Trading or Chopped?

Dodgers Cleaning House, will it help?

No matter what the sport, at the end of every individual sport season everyone associated with that sport ends up not knowing if they will keep their job.

This is especially true when there was a high expectation for a team ‘to go all the way’ and for whatever reason they don’t.

This was true with the Los Angeles Lakers last season when not only was Paul Gasol traded to the Bull, but even their coach Mike D’Antoni was replaced by Byron Scott.

www.NBA.com/lakers

Now it’s the MLB’s turn. There are many baseball teams that were expected to a whole all better than what they actually did. It didn’t seem to matter how much money the owners of the teams spend on players, they did not live up to huge price tags.

So, who will get the axe? Who will be sent back to AAA baseball and who will get traded? No one knows for sure, but the rumors are flying all over the sports world.

The Dodgers have already made the news with the hiring of a new GM, Andrew Friedman, and the former GM of the Tampa Bay Rays. What happen to Colletti, you ask? Well the owners actually kept Colletti as a senior advisor.

http://nypost.com/2014/10/14/how-dodgers-swiping-the-rays-gm-shakes-up-baseball-world/

http://m.dodgers.mlb.com/news/article/98487820/andrew-friedman-named-dodgers-president-of-baseball-operations-colletti-becomes-advisor

But I don’t think the Dodgers are done with cleaning house, high priced players that don’t earn their pay will need to either be traded or somehow, someway show the Dodger owners that they are worth the investment.

However, it just isn’t the Dodgers, how about the Los Angeles Angels, the New York Yankees, the Boston Red Socks, the Atlanta Braves, and all teams that on paper should be playing in the World Series.

www.MLB.com

This year the Oakland Raiders did not even wait until the end of their season to try and change from a losing season by firing their coach Dennis Allen, after only 5 weeks into their season. Then the owner hires Tony Sparano as their interim coach.

http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2014/10/07/raiders-return-to-work-under-new-coach/

But there is still the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New York Jets, the Jacksonville Jaguars, the St. Louis Rams, each and every one of these teams have a losing season so far this year! Their owners are already looking at how to get their
‘product’ producing and become winning teams. New Managers, coaches, quarterbacks, whatever it will take.

www.NFL.com

Then you have the owner of the Washington Redskins. They have already replaced their coach, traded their under-producing players and there are still facing a losing season.

http://www.nfl.com/teams/profile?team=WAS

What it comes down to is no matter how good you are in you particular sport, have a bad year and you could end of being traded or become a ‘free agent’

It sometimes doesn’t even matter that you played you very best and the term as a whole wasn’t having a good year, in the eyes of the owner, someone will take the
Fall, to become the scapegoat so to speak.

With the Major League Baseball Playoffs just around the corner in the month of October. Who will represent the National league and who will represent the American league is the baseball lover’s first question on their mind? The second question is who will survive the playoffs to meet in the 2014 World Series.

Some familiar teams and a couple of new ones look like they will be fighting all the way to the end for a chance to make the ‘Playoffs’ and move on to the chance to play in the World Series.

So far this season, College Football has proven why it has also grown in popularity over the last several years. There has been several huge upsets already and in a playoff system that doesn’t left much room for teams that lose every one game, losing your first or second game can end the collage team’s dream of making it to the BCS Championship game in 2015.

The first preseason football game was Aug. 3, at the Pro Football Hall of Fame with the New York Giants playing the Buffalo Bills and even through it was only a preseason game, it was televised with a whole lot of football fans excited to have Football back.

However, if you are like me, it was hard to keep track of all the moving around and swapping of players. Not only players, moving around, but managers and coaches as well.

Not to mention the players that completely fell off the grid. Such as New Orleans Saints cut Darren Sproles and Jimmy Graham’s not happy about it

http://www.kmov.com/sports/Lots-of-big-names-still-on-NFLs-unemployment-line–267699641.html

How about the players that have been suspended for various reasons, including drug abuse. You have to take that into account as well. Do you draft them, knowing that you will need an early replacement?

The NFL suspensions have taking a heavy toll on 2014 already.

NFL Players aren’t the only changes that a football fan is going to need to keep track of. There are also five rules changes, an extensive crackdown on on-field taunting and abusive language and a two-game preseason experiment that will move extra-point attempts from the 2-yard line to the 20 (effectively a 38-yard try) will bring a new look to the 2014 NFL season.

There is also the news that apparently CBS will be showing almost all of the Thursday night Footballs Games this coming season, that is especially good news for many football fans that can’t get or afford the NFL station. However, CBS is not showing all the Thursday night games, but enough. Die-hard fans who can’t get the NFL station will still have to make another arrangements for the few games that CBS will miss.

Now if only CBS or FOX or even NBC could get their hands on ‘red zone’ or at least a version of it!

Hey baseball fans, the jury is still out on whether or not the use of ‘instant replay’ has really helped or hindered the ‘good old’ game of baseball.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_replay_in_baseball

There have been several occasions when the use of instant replay has changed the outcome of the game. The Umpires would take a second look at the call and the call would stand or be reversed.

http://www.sacbee.com/2014/07/02/6528272/dodgers-run-into-triple-play-lose.html

However, on several occasions, not only did it slow down the game even more than normal for a game of baseball, but the Umpires still managed to get the call wrong.

http://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2014/7/2/5863424/triple-play-indians-dodgers-instant-replay-challenge

There is also a downside to instant replay, one which the managers are in agreement, and that is that the managers should not have to be the ones who have to bring the request for a second look it to the attention of the Umpires. The Umpires should know from their past experiences that their call was a questionable one and request the second look themselves. At least for the obvious calls, this one change would and could speed up the instant replay, which at times has lasted several minutes. Each time-delay caused by the request by the managers for a second look at the umpire’s call is down time for the pitchers which can throw off their rhythm, or to the base runner left out there

Half the season is almost over and baseball will takes a few days off from their normal schedule for the best of the best to play in the ‘All Star Game’ which includes the famous ‘homerun derby’ .

This being the first year the use of instant replay is being used in baseball, now during this mid-season break, it would also be a good time for the MLB to take a second look at what has transpired in the first half. Has instant replay actually helped the game at all?

There are still the die-hard baseball fans that if left up to them would surely dump it. They would prefer to keep the game as pure as possible, these are the same fans that would also do away with the Designated Hitter, which was implemented in 1973, that the American League uses, but the National League does not.

Funny thing about instant replay, it was suppose to put an end to the ejections in the game. Usually players and their managers get ejected from the game because of Umpires really bad calls. However, despite instant replay, ejections are actually up this year

http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/06/26/despite-instant-replay-ejections-are-actually-up-this-year/

Umpires are quicker with the ejections and there is always the argument over strikes and balls, which is not included in instant replay and cannot be challenged by the plays or managers.

http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20140601&content_id=77742598&notebook_id=77759108&c_id=bos

Although the jury is still out on whether ‘instant replay’ can be considered a success or not, there are still many in the MLB that think that instant replay needs to go even further.

The next logical step would be to take the calling of balls and strikes out of the umpire’s control. It has even been suggested that baseball use the same technology that they used in tennis to call the balls out of bounds. Who knows if that would work or not but it does make for some very interesting conversations.

Sports Blog for June 2014

We are just about mid-way through the year and so far, it has been a year filled with sport headlines.

Basketball is just about done with their playoffs, as well as Hockey. Baseball is getting close to it’s midway with The National Baseball League All-Star game just around the corner. And there
is already talk about it being less than a hundred days before NFL has its season start again.

All this going on, and what makes the headlines constantly, the sale of the Clippers, of course.
Every Clipper fan at the news of the sale for 2billion dollars had to cringe a little.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/04/29/what-donald-sterling-could-make-if-hes-forced-to-sell-the-clippers/

For years the Clippers have always been the bridesmaid to the Los Angeles Lakers. Even after the Clippers won their division and went on to play in the playoffs, they were still the main LA basketball team. Now with the sale of the team, you just had to ask, where will they play next year or the year after? There are lots of cities out there that would love to get the Clippers to move to their city.

But first the LA Clippers have to work out something out with Donald Sterling, his wife, and the Natural Basketball League. Every day it is something new in the headlines, first Donald is told his has to sell, then his wife goes ahead and puts the team up for sale, then Donald say ‘no way’ and files a law suit. He then cancels the law suits and agrees to the sale if the NBA agrees to certain term and as of June 9, Donald is once again suing the NBA.

However, the Clippers are not the only Sports team on the market, the owners of the Buffalo Bills have also decide to sell and have hired a legal firm to do just that. Due to the reasons behind the sale of the Clippers, the sale of the Buffalo Bills has had almost no press.

When Disney sold the Angels to In 2005, new owner Arturo Moreno added “Los Angeles” to the team’s name in order to better tap into the team’s history and appeal to more Los Angeles fans as in the team’s past.

He also stated that as Los Angeles is the second largest market in the U.S., its addition would benefit the team greatly. However in order to stay in compliance with the terms of its lease with the city of Anaheim, which required “Anaheim” be a part of the team’s name, the team was renamed the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim

Should fans worry about what can happen after a sports team gets sold? Yes, just ask any Dodger fan!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LA_Dodgers

Under the owner Real estate businessman Walter O’Malley, the dodgers moved from Brooklyn New York to Los Angeles and on April 18, 1958, the Dodgers played their first game in Los Angeles, defeating the former New York and now new San Francisco Giants, 6–5, before 78,672 fans at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

In 1998 the son of Walter O’Malley , Pete, sold the team to the Fox Entertainment Group, it only lasted a few years before the team was sold again to Frank McCourt in 2004. Under McCourt leadership, the fans were so fed up with all the garbage that they stopped going to the games. Not just a few fans at a few games, but a lot of fans, hundreds of them stayed away from almost every home game.

McCourt was finally forced to sell the team by order of a Bankruptcy Court in 2012.

So, as a Clipper fan, you should be concerned, the Clipper Team could end up just like the Seattle Super Sonics, who in 2008 left Seattle and are now know as the Oklahoma City Thunder.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_Thunder#Franchise_history

The best scenario for us, Clipper fans, will be that only the price of admissions will increase and the increase won’t be so high so to keep the fans at home watching the game on TV or the local sports bar.

The National Football League To Remove The Extra Point

In case you haven’t heard, the extra point in the NFL might be going the way of the dodo bird.

This past January, The NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell began hinting that the days of the extra point as we know it are numbered. He also went on to say that it is in “large part because the conversion rate is a staggering 99.6 percent”. “Are there any plays in the game that really are not consequential?” Goodell said at the time. “You want to add excitement with every play.”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Goodell

The extra point in the National Football League has been a part of the game from the very start.

Because of this, many is the sports world have come up with alternatives to completely eliminating this extra point. One idea is that the NFL considers moving the spot of the attempt, thus making it more difficult.

This proposal, which would force teams to kick from, let’s say, the 25 yard line, would make it a 42 yard attempt. The conversion rate for a field goal from that distance has hovered between 80 and 90 percent over the last few decades, which should be enough of an uncertainty to inject a little more life into the game.

By moving the point on the field when a team kicks the ball could possibility force teams to consider doing the two-point conversion more often. Considering that the two-point conversions work at least half the time, even more so on a running plays, and suddenly the moments after a touchdown become that much more strategically important.

The 25-line proposal should come before the NFL Competition Committee, but there is no clear consensus yet.

Medical research has also revealed that Sildenafil Citrate tablets are useful for the blood stream has been used and the prostrate gland has been removed, the nerves that are needed in viagra overnight shipping order to examine the level of testosterone in the body.

Personally, I don’t have a problem with the extra point and if given a choice of totally eliminating it or moving the location, I vote for moving it and not doing away with it completely.
Why? Simple, we have seen a jump in the successful blocking of the extra point and what would advertiser do without that extra AD time between making the touchdown and setting up for the extra point attempt.

There is also the history behind the ‘extra point’. Long before football became the NFL, there has always been the ‘extra point’. It is among the oldest parts of the game of gridiron football and dates all the way back to its rugby roots.

In the earliest days, scoring a touchdown was not the primary objective but a means of getting a free kick at the goal. It wasn’t until the start of the 20th century that touchdowns had become more important and the roles of the touchdown and the extra kick were reversed. It was at this time the point value for the after-touchdown kick was reduced to its current one-point value while the touchdown was now worth five. This was later increased to six points in American football in 1912.

And although a successful kick is only worth one point, missing it can decide the outcome of the game. Perhaps the most famous example of this was the 2003 game between the New Orleans Saints and the Jacksonville Jaguars, where, after scoring a touchdown as time expired, the Saints kicker, John Carney missed the extra point, giving the Jaguars a 20 to 19 victory.

Another example is another game in 2003 between Carolina Panthers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, that was sent in to overtime due to a blocked extra point.

Hopefully both Roger Goodell and the Competition Committee remember this and have decided ‘for now’ to delay doing anything regarding the ‘extra point’. But it is only safe for this year, who knows what the future holds for it.
