If you find it annoying when football allowing taking a knee how do you feel about baseball allowing the home team to not play the bottom og the 9th if ahead .
I think they should be allowed to play but theyâre not allowed to swing at any pitches .
That looks good on him ! Who would want a coach that stupid and selfish ?
Pat Lynch (get vaccinated moron!)
Not allowing you to take a knee is change for the sake of change
There is a big big difference,
Can you tell me what it is?
There is no difference . The leading team in both sports has earned the right to run out the clock (I know no clock in baseball). No injuries will occur when youâre taking a knee . Thatâs a good thing earned by the winning team .
Pat Lynch (the old guy)
I would guess 99.9% of baseball fans agree with the current rule in baseball, and 99.9% of football fans agree with the current rule in football.
So, no difference.
There is a difference.
First of all I agree,take a knee but
In football a fumble or pick will allow the Defense to score and win the game so forcing the offence to make a play can result in a loss if it is a one score game
In Baseball the defense cannot score, in the bottom of the ninth there is nothing that can change the outcome of the game
Kneeling is what you do when you have less than 20 x (downs left) seconds remaining. You canât force someone to play full on. How do you judge that? âoh you didnât run hard enough,â or âhey, you ran away from the defender, how dare you?â Itâs silly.
What I DO find annoying is the offense expecting the defense to just stand there and let them kneel. If you want to kneel you should have to block for it. So on one hand I donât have any problem at all with what Shaq Richardson did, but then on the other he did violate etiquette. I just think that the etiquette is dumb. Football doesnât really need etiquette, it has rules instead. But then I also suppose that this game in particular wasnât a one-score game.
Getting back to the main topic of this thread... How can the Argos be punks when they have a girl playing safety ?
totally agreeâŚsmart choiceâŚ
Yup . Totally agree . Itâs a funny thing but you never see a team in victory formation when theyâre going to lose the game now do ya ?
Iâm guessing youâd be a bit hesitant to call that player a âgirlâ to his face for fear of the severe butt kicking youâd receive.
So you call him a girl because he wears his hair long hey?
LOL.
Naw . I used to have hair just as long as his back in the day . Iâm just having some fun with the thread title and you got to admit he is kind of cute in a girlie like way .
Give it a rest? Methinks you might have trouble with the concept of discussion forums. Would it surprise you to learn that theyâre about more than simply denigrating rival teams?
Actually a select few other posters do but thatâs not the point. Nobody else agreed with Galileo either when he first published his findings about a heliocentric solar system but that didnât mean he was wrong.
Probably that theyâre not as tight as I am when it comes to demanding a full sixty minutes of action for my money.
I disagree. While itâs not stupid within the current rules, itâs annoying and most certainly boring. And thatâs why Iâm suggesting some rule change.
Iâll rest when Iâm good and ready. If that bothers you, read something else.
And your comment about giving it a rest showed a lot of this âunderstandingâ of which you speak?
Then go talk to the wall. I suppose you can then report back to the rest of us if you care but personally I donât.
Wasnât this the guy who blocked the punt for the Argos on Wednesday night?
I also hear he does a mean rendition of Sweet Child O Mine
Me I cheered the blocked punt. I'd picked the Argonauts Defence for my Fantasy team.
