Blocking was the means to advance the ball carrier. They should return to that rule. I for one do not watch rugby. But if I did it would not be on a football field. Anyone recall why Chuck Mercein put his hands up as Bart Starr crossed the goal line in the Ice Bowl? It was not a signal for a touchdown. It was to show the refs his hands were free from trying to push Starr forward which would have been illegal. Starr scored behind the blocks of Jerry Kramer and Ken Bowman. Now that is how football was meant to be played.</p></blockquote><p></p>
