I am pretty much worried about how football will look in August 2008. One day at a time.

I hope that it stays exactly the same, except that the entire nation operates under NCAA rules. Sorry, just a purist. NCAA is dang near perfect. No need to mess with it. Just my two cents I'll add my two cents to that. I have to believe that the federation rule making people who are against cutting either never played football or just don't know how it should be played. NCAA rules should be nationwide, period. Who knows, maybe it goes full circle and the the unbalanced Single Wing is the offense of choice. What I do know is that the non football people who have influence over the games rules need to be weeded out to preserve the game.

Just a question for you "gotta use NCAA rules, gotta cut block" ...do you guys cut in practice when you go 1's vs 1's?

We cut on the line 1's vs. 1's. We are under federation rules, so we can't cut anywhere else.
I do agree that we should all play under NCAA rules.
I do have some questions for those high schools that play under NCAA rules. Are the goalposts NCAA width? Can you use a fiieldgoal block tee? Do you kickoff from the 30? Is your overtime NCAA rules?

Texas HS - No
Texas HS - Yes, may use a kicking tee
Texas HS - No, from the 35.
Yes
Each year, the UIL (Texas public school governing body for extra-curricular activities) lists the exceptions to NCAA rules. These are few.

I believe that OT should be NCAA style except it starts at the 50 so the D has some sort of a chance

If you start from the 50 these games could go on for another 2 hours.

PREACH ON BROTHA DANG RIGHT THEY SUCK! Are you guys slamming them down during games or what? 3 years and haven't had a thing go wrong yet. Even let my 4 and 2 yr olds wear them around the house and talk to one another. Not at all! That's what pisses me off! They crapped out in game 2 of this season, we had just had them reconditioned. We then sent them out around the bye week and got them back by game 7. Come game 8, crap out again. Then they tried to give us this long, drawn-out procedure of turning them on in a certain order to guarantee they'd work- what a joke that was. We didn't need to pay all that cash for a moody set of phones that may or may not work. We are supposedly getting replacement sets this year from the company- HC doesn't need to be dealing with this BS in the middle of the season, you know!

I predict: Spring professional league or minor league system for NFL similar to NFL Europe but in America (like NBA D-League)
Spring high school football in all states
a college playoff system (hopefully sooner than 2050!)
the Detroit Lions actually having 1 winning season
