Listener Robert:

One thing I didn't mention about Arena football was the decision to play 8 a side. That's awfully crowded for that amount of space (about that of a hockey rink). Standard 6 man football is played on a slightly larger field than that. As a result, Arena football had to adopt a bunch of rules constraining where players could line up & even what they could do once the ball was snapped.

I asked Jim Foster about that, and he said it was one of the compromises they made to make the game more acceptable to fans of 11-a-side. He was for playing 6- or 7/side & allowing free play, but the money people wanted to have more players on the lines even if that meant they had to restrict play.

They compromised the substitution rules in AFL too to allow for QB & kicker specialists. The general idea was that everyone would play both ways, but they ditched that to allow the specialists.

Saw Trainwreck- Enjoyed it, but was surprised to see Amy having sexual congress while wearing a white body suit or a bra and panties. Seems like they could have been discrete by depicting sex under the sheets.

The XFL was the biggest letdown. It was boringly legit except for the hot tubs in the end zones. They should have had coaches breaking chairs over refs heads. Could have been great.

Revenge of the Nerds
  6:19pm
Listener Robert:

If I were rich, I'd have something I'd call Cage Match Football, which would be like the uncompromised Arena idea, plus some of my own. There'd be no system of downs, but a possession clock instead. The cage would be around the whole thing, including ceiling, with all surfaces in play. Substitution would be limited by a kind of cattle pen arrangement with a sliding gate. The goals would extend to the floor, and could be defended by a goalie if the team so chose. They'd start 7-a-side but that could be reduced by penalties as in hockey & lacrosse, & there'd be substitution on the fly as in those sports, starting from the cattle pens at the ends of the cage. Periods would start with a neutral kickoff, with the ball in the middle & teams rushing out of their gates to kick it 1st. Kicking a loose ball would be allowed; still no punting, though.
