[AZ BU Fan]

What do posters think are the BEST changes in College or Professional Sports in the past 50 years (Since 1960)....

Allowing 2 line passes and eliminating unnecessary face offs has saved professional hockey.

I don't put much stock in what an actor says in a movie. IMO there should be an amendment telling the majority of pitchers to act like a hitter when he goes to the plate with a bat in his hands. There should be an amendment barring weeds on the outfield walls.

DEFINITELY - moving the 3-pt. line back a couple years ago, 'cause it's made a huge difference in the # of 3-pointers put up...yeah right.
Actually, it seems that BU hasn't taken as many since that rule came into effect - is that because we don't have a JC shooter anymore?

Actually I like the challenges that NFL coaches get for replay, though some coaches make dumb choices about when to thrown the challenge flag.
NO! Not again Lovey!

moving the field goal posts from the front of the endzone to the back.

Good one, I had forgotten about that one. Now I remember players running into it during pass routes and I suppose some probably used it as a pick and roll.
