       NFL: overtime procedure, should be changed to college rules

       When you are watching the NFL on Sunday and you see a game that
       has gone into overtime, you will find that their is a coin toss,
       whomever wins this decides on who gets the ball, if the winning
       side chooses to take the ball and score, the win, this is not a
       fair chance to the other team.  I think that the college
       overtime would be a good approach for Commissioner Roger Godell
       and the NFL to change to.

       I hate the overtime rules. I think the ones they passed for the
       playoffs are just a half-baked attempt at a good idea.
       I think the college overtime rules are what the NFL should have.
       Only start the ball off a kickoff instead of 30 yards away, like
       in college. That would still preserve the whole NFL image
       (whatever that is) and still make it fair and exciting.
