About putting the ball down in the end zone, why not carry it to the logical
conclusion? You could create a designated place for the ball to be, and the
offense needs to put the ball in this space about the size of the ball for
a legal score. While you're at it, you might want to change the style of the
ball to facilitate this -- you could make it a little smaller and round. And
if you made it steel, you could make the back of this depository magnetic so
there would be no doubts of its being put in the right place. Hmm, you could
make the players move faster by introducing a smooth surface, and, ho wow,
you could let 'em ride skateboards -- no, SKATES! That's it! You could also
introduce studded gloves and what not. Hey, does this give us any ideas? ...
I can even imagine a few stars of the new version of football, but one of
them is still in a mental-care facility.......
