What happens if they both fall in at the exact same time?

I’d be more interested in what the NFL can do to make a sport hater like me to tune in.;-D

talk about sudden death!

Gator Bowl..???

This would also work much better with national disputes than going to war. Just put the two countries’ presidents on the beam …

This is the real reason Tom Brady retired.

Can it get any more brutal? BOO HISS

Good way to resolve the dispute between the MLB owners and players.

I lost interest in football about 5 years ago..

Bleeb has a very nice front row seat.

I hope part of the new rules is that there is no replay.

Love the numbering – Allen & Mahomes!

How will they fit in 5 commercials? The NFL is just a commercial interrupted by a few game highlights.

Hey, just swing that big Q-tip like a baseball bat and your golden.

FINALLY!! …and

Baseball: a sword fight with Fungo bats.

Hocky: skeet shooting hockey pucks from the penalty box.

Basketball: soccer kick a three pointer.

Soccer: … well, they should just have to play basketball!

That’s definitely sudden-death overtime.

The crock don’t care who falls in based on that grin he has

Well at least they found a use for the backup quarterbacks.

The Florida method.

A lot more exciting than the rest of the “game”

I know let the refs make a questionable call.

How about replacing the 2 minute warning with that? It would sure speed things up…

We did that in the Army.

Good idea. Have the kickers face off.

Might as well. The NFL has turned into a complete circus.

Anything would be better than the existing overtime ridiculous rule that gives the team that wins the coin toss the exclusive opportunity to win the game. It wouldn’t be that big of a change to the existing rule. Simply allow each team one possession.

Sorry no hope for you sport hater!

I suspect a lot of fans would be rooting for the gator.

This is even more needed in soccer.

John-a Thon…John-a-Thon.

So, I’m guessing they’re not crocodile hunters.

They should also toss in a cheerleader from the losing team!

True Sudden Death.

Actually they should try this with soccer/football. The “shootout” is terribly droll!!!!

Can the biggest idiot with the loudest mouth on each team do this?
