Re: AAFC records now to be acknowledged by the NFL!

Re: Do the Chiefs deserve to be considered a dynasty

Considering the Chiefs' losses in two Super Bowls raises the question regarding the team as a dynasty, I have a question: Would you prefer to see your team 1) Win the AFC or NFC championship and then lose the Super Bowl or 2) Not win the conference championship and suffer a Super Bowl loss?

Re: Negro League stats

What MLB perpetrated by excluding black players from 1885-1946 was racism, pure and simple. I'm all in favor of recognizing the great players of the Negro Leagues. It is often said that pitchers such as Walter Johnson never had to face a Josh Gibson but it should be considered that Gibson never had ...

Re: Next rule change

Here are my recommendations to increase scoring: Change the scoring system ... a touchdown worth 20 points, 5 points for the XP 10 points for a field goal 6 points for a safety. At least the scores will look higher. Adopt the CFL single rule. At least it will add a possible extra point or two to a g...
