You should be docked several points for omitting "white shoes" from your answer. For shame.
Interesting you should mention that. Yes, the "White Shoes" was an obvious but I would have felt a bit guilty showing off seeing as I didn't actually recognize his face but Ono.. forgot to remove his name from one of the cards. Maybe he should lose points. LOL
IMO BWSJ was the 2nd best returner in football history. I'd put Devin Hester ahead of him. It's pretty sad the way they've pretty much eliminated the kick-off return from football. Screw safety, I need to be entertained.
If someone asked you who caught Don Larsen's perfect game you'd probably answer Lawrence Berra.
I agree with you regarding the kickoffs. I say either restore it back to what it was, or eliminate it completely. What they have now is a waste of time.
From post #4,314:
My bad! I wasn't wearing my glasses when I made that post.
There have been a few times where the name of a correct answer has been in the image file name, and anybody would see it as a screen tip, if they point their mouse at the pic.
I think it would be a good rule change to have teams kickoff from their own 20 yard line. The kickers might then concentrate more on hang time than distance, and some of the better returners wouldn't take a knee if they caught the ball in the end zone.
Alternatively, they could assess a five yard penalty with re-kick if a kickoff ball went through the end zone without touching a player or some part of the field. The teams that wanted touchbacks would then have a ten yard long 'island' within which the ball would have to hit the ground.
