Instead of a coin toss and kickoff, the ball should be placed at the 50 yard line at the beginning of the game. Each team will be in their own endzone. Then, when the whistle blows, everyone runs at the ball to see who gets it first.

I haven't paid much attention to the NFL (or any pro sports) for a couple years. It's been a gradual descent and lack of interest. I barely follow college football now. I know there's a lot of money involved (that's a major problem), but it all just seems so...inconsequential.

When I hear people arguing about sports, what this guy said, what that guy said, etc., it just seems like such a waste of time. I think the culture of sports is extremely bloated. Watching a bit of a game here and there is fun, but anything beyond that doesn't interest me now.

Rant over.
