The Supebowl should be played in daylight. Start the game at 3 PM Eastern.

YES!

Here are mine:

Troy Aikman was highly overrated as a QB- I think the 1992 Cowboys would have still gone 13-3 and won the Super Bowl if Steve Beurelein started every game that season

Do they win those three championships if Tony Romo was the QB?

No, because Romo was still an adolescent.

As much as I respect old school, I prefer the Jets unis from '78 into mid-'80s (Klecko/Gastineau Era) over what they basically went back to in '98. Should have 'retired' those Classic unis one year earlier IMO being that Namath was now a Ram. As for those late-'80s thru '97 alterations (end-of-Walton/Coz/Carroll/Kotite eras), I didn't like at all.

I actually think that the 1990 changes were nicer. The Jet unis were starting to look boring. I do agree that the return to the Namath Jet unis was a mistake, though.

It won't finish in daylight at that time of year with a 3pm start.

I'm burned out on night football games (and sporting events) in general. Every NFL team should have at least half their games kick off at noon or 1:00 local time.

There never should have been any uniform changes since 1980.

No franchise shifts, either, for that matter.

Oh, yeah, and the MLB All-Star game reminded me of this one. The NFL should just do away with the Pro Bowl. Just chuck it. Nobody cares. It's even worse than a preseason game.

Of course, (and now for a REALLY unpopular opinion) I've also long felt that MLB should do away with their All-Star game as well. I would rather watch the least meaningful regular season game of the entire MLB season than watch the All-Star game.

Yeah, I guess I got to agree across-the-board ALL sports. Heck NHL All-Star Game (hockey also a collision-sport, mind you) played midseason - when if someone gets injured? And NBA, like Pro Bowl, nothing but an all-offense affair. No Super Bowl players in the Pro Bowl...yes, simply let it be a thing of the past. Pick all-conference and all-league (Pro) teams and let it be.

So, you wish Cincy's helmets go back to 'BENGALS' and no tiger stripes around shoulders, huh?

The 1981 uni change was fine but the current ones are an abomination.
