It just changes the rules, that's all.
Imagine if you were Bill Polian,the GM the Indianapolis Colts, and you assembled a super-bowl winning team in 2006, and were returning all 52 players for 2007 - you are the odds-on Vegas favorite to repeat.
Now, imagine ifRoger Goodell stepped to the podium on August 1, 2007 and said "this year, we're changing some things, we're eliminating the audible, and Field Goals are now worth2 points instead of 3. Sacks will also be worth 2 points each."
You can bet that you'regonna put your hand up and say "Hey, what gives?"
Well, I think if Bill Polian was on the opposite side of the current Colts, and were dealt a team out of random picks, some of which could possibly be rookies that made up half of your team perhaps,instead of an elite veteran offensive scoring machine, QB, recievers, off line, RB etc etclike Indy has, then I would bet money he would be okay with the changes. Some of the teams last year were stacked, thats just the way the odds are. Some teams had people that never have shot a deer before, some had the Indianapolis Colts for a team. This is for fun and I think over all it would make the contest more fun, for some at least, otherswill be upset. No ones ever happy I guess. I personally see it as a good thing. More people will feel like they contributed something at least. Maybe if they dont take a buck, they can enter a doe for like 25 to 50 points, and if they do get a buck before the contest ends, the doe entry gets wiped??
