I’ve been trying to give it a chance, but watching Monday Night Football tonight kind of sealed it for me: I hate the new kickoff rules! The regular kickoff is dumb, the onside kick is dumb, the free kick after a safety is dumb. The whole thing is dumb and I want it to go away. I’m sure it won’t go away this season, but I really wish it would. I don’t think it’s enough to make me stop watching, but I think it’s exceptionally stupid.

I didn’t even care about the results of tonight’s games; I was just watching to have them on and the only thing that really is sticking with me is how dumb the kickoffs are now.
