If you could change 1 rule in 1 professional sport, what rule would you change and why?
>>
>>154154697
multiball
>>
Soccity-soccer
-Foul-baiting in the rival half = yellow; foul-baiting in the rival area = straight red
>>
>>154154697
If you get caught using clostebol you should get banned for life from tennis.
>>
>>154154697
Bring in an orange card for temporary sanctions. Use them when players remonstrate/dive/try to con the ref. Orange card means you are sent to the bench for 15 minutes, and the timer goes up by 5 minutes for every additional use for any player committing a new offence.
>>
>>154154697

>Basketball
Alleyoops score points based on where the passer was when the pass was made, as long as the scorer got the ball and finished the basket while airborn.
- So if someone throws an alleyoop from beyond the 3 point line it's now worth 3 points. And if they ever add a 4 point line or shot it would count too.
>Football
Direct free kicks or corner kicks = 2 goals
- None of the long ball set piece meme anymore
>Volleyball
All players, including the Libero, can now legally lift or be lifted by teammates, but only when attacking.
- Could result in a lot of interesting stuff, specially including the Libero on offense somehow (or increase injuries lol)
>Handball
Players are now allowed to land with one or both feet in the Goal Zone as long as the jump is made from before the Free Throw line. The keeper can stop the play and win possession of the ball by touching/tagging the player before the ball enters the goal.
- This deals with one of the most boring aspects of Handball to me, which is the infinite circling of the goal zone, it's literally pass sideways the sport. Now you can be more vertical, bait your opponents, including the keeper and create for your teammates from the goal zone.
>Gridiron
Field Goals now score double the points if the ball hits any of the bars before going in
- I don't know much about Gridiron but Field Goals always looked retarded to me since there is no top bar. So instead of forcing everyone to change the Y thing, I prefer to just reward more accurate kicks
>Tennis
A player is now allowed to dual wield rackets if he wants to.
- Looks and feels cool to be able to dual wield rackets, at least in casual play
>MMA/UFC
Pride gloves
- Much better overall
>Boxing
Thigh punches and clinching are now allowed.
- Thigh punches add another dynamic to the fight, much like kicks. And boxing without grabbing/clinching is too much of a difference from bareknuckle to me, it always bothered me

>Any
Dogs now officially allowed as players
>>
>>154158297
Actually, screw that, add Calf Punching to Boxing too
>>
>>154154697
The most annoying thing is the entirety of F1. And my rule change would be: scrap basically the entire rulebook except for the part where it says that your car cannot have devices that kill other drivers (that would also be cool, but I guess this is not the place for it) and that the cars cannot have massive assist systems
In football ... maybe net playing time?
>>
Any team I don’t like automatically loses
>>
Pitchers have to hit again in boreball

Offense and Defense are the same team in handegg

>>154154697
NFL overtime is now college style.
>>
>>154154697
In football league matches, 0x0 games award no points for either team. Either score or go fuck yourself
>>
>>154154697
Soccer: Diving is now a red card
Hockey: Diving is now a game misconduct but also the instigator penalty is removed so vigilantism is legal again

Rat fucks BTFO
>>
>>154154697
Basketball foul baiting/flopping automatic ejection and suspended for the season with no pay. If you initiate the contact as an offensive player you are called for an offensive foul (this used to be the rule)

Soccer diving red card, suspended for the season and you are banned from all international competitions. You will also pay a fine of $1 million USD or pro rated to your contract

Football create a zone where the QB is protected with two hand touch counts as a down but once he leaves that zone he is fair game and can be murdered for all I care. The anti-Mahomes rule

Baseball If you hit a home run you get to bat again. You don't leave the field of play until they get you out or you reach base. If a player is walked after a home run hit he gets awarded two bases if no strike is thrown on the next at bat

Hockey I don't think anything needs to change honestly. It feels like the one sport that isn't pozzed and is still pure to the spirit of the game. I'd change overtime to 4 v 4 in the playoffs if I had to change anything because nobody wants to watch 5 overtimes. Other and probably better idea is to ban all Canadian teams

Boxing/MMA judges scorecards are shown after every round
>>
Real Madrid start every game 10 goals behind for past crimes against humanity.
>>
Curling. You can now throw the puck to your opponents.
>>
>>154154697
Titties

>>154159567
I would like to go down in history for passing the ass and titties rule, but Titties is enough for me
>>
>>154154697
Live subbing and only one emergency timeout in apehoop and jogtie like hockey
>>
>>154154697
No bulbasaurs allowed
