[QUOTE="sschind, post: 709425, member: 10247"] I know on the 10 minute drive thing, I just threw it out there because I believe in one of your posts you said (5,10,15 minutes.) and a 5 minute drive is not out of the ordinary. EDIT, that was someone else, not you, I'm sorry. I also know fans will not want to go back to the tie I'm just giving my opinion. Like I said, so far it seems that any new ideas, including my own, that are proposed will have others coming up with negatives. Why not take away the receiving or kicking off advantage. If you win the toss you receive, no choice. Your main objection is the coin toss as you see that the winner of the toss has a distinct advantage. 3 out of 13 won on a 1st possession TD is significant to you. If we give the other team a chance no matter what happens wouldn't that take away the advantage of winning the toss and scoring a TD, especially if you have to receive and don't get the advantage of knowing what you need to win. IMO there is no 100% fair way to do it. The best way is to simply not have an OT and let games end in a tie but that is not possible in the post season and to most people it is not desirable in the regular season. Someone will always has the advantage, at least in someone's mind. [/QUOTE]
