Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daryl Muellenberg" data-source="post: 649040" data-attributes="member: 9708">Sorry, but a FG shootout involving just special teams is not involving the 'whole team' - that is not semantics. Where have I ever said that kickers aren't part of the whole team? Just because I don't want just one part of the team to determine the outcome doesn't mean I don't count kickers as part of the team - and saying that the idea went completely over my head is ridiculous. The entire game has been played with all parts of the team participating, now you want to include only the special teams? With your idea, at that point the whole team now consists of only the kicking special teams. My idea still includes the whole team (including kickers), while your idea excludes the offense and defense which play a bigger role during the game than what the kickers do.You are correct, this was about ideas and I just happen to disagree with your idea and have explained why I disagree. I have never said that to be fair both teams need to get an equal number of possessions. My idea was each team gets at least 1 possession regardless of whether the fist team scores a td or not. After that, if the game is still tied then go to sudden death. Let the 'whole team' determine the outcome, not just the kickers.</blockquote>
