Now here's an idea. Let's say there is one more bowl game, called the toilet bowl. The rules are a bit different, they are opposite like the games spades and hearts. For those who don't know, in spades you want the most points (books) and in hearts you want the least. Hearts can be interesting because in playing to lose, you win.

There would have to be certain distinct rules, but I could see it now. Players are not allowed to run from scrimmage in the "wrong" direction. Only forward passes allowed. Penalties are reversed, in other words a fifteen yarder puts you that much closer to a touchdown.

Forget field goals and kicked in extra points, the defense tries to run in the extra points if a touchdown occurs.

In a way like loho poker, the object is to lose.

I could see it now and I bet it would be interesting. I figure Cleveland and Detroit for the first contenders in such a game. At least they would make some kind of history.

Actually discussing how these special rules would work could prove quite interesting. Like punts would be redone of they are too short, and a bunch of other things. But football was made up by someone, as were spades and hearts. I think it could be interesting.

And BTW, could the MF who broke into my car and left the tickets for the Browns game please come and steal them back ? I do not wish to be a litterbug.

Tremy quit your bitching. Those could have been Detroit Lions tickets.

Can the Toilet Bowl be played here in Flushing, NY. The Jets can host.
