Tabe Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 To be fair, they outlawed it because Jimmy Graham hung on it and bent the goalpost, causing them to delay the game while they tried to fix it. I get why they decided to outlaw it and I think without that catalyst they wouldn't have even considered itYep. Once that happened, the life expectancy of that celebration was reduced to nil. Deservedly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious Darius Bagfelt Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Bills arent going anywhere. There are money guys willing to keep them there and they are busy trying to scrounge up 90 million bucks to gussy up BMO field in Toronto. Dont know where they would find the billion or so dollars they would need for a new stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newb82 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 My best guess: Tom Galisano buys the team to keep them here (he has said that he would) then sells in a few years to someone who won't move, like he did with the Sabres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Deadspin did a nice summary of all the things approved (or not approved) at the owner's meeting Proposals passed: Officials can now use replay review to rule on loose ball recoveries—the so-called "NaVorro Bowman" rule, so dubbed after the 49ers were unable to challenge an obvious Niners fumble recovery in the NFC Championship that the refs awarded to the Seahawks. The goalpost uprights will be extended five feet higher, to reduce the instances of a kick sailing above the upright and leaving it to the officials' judgment. The game clock will no longer stop when a quarterback is sacked. "Roll up blocks," where a blocker hits the side of the knee of a player, are banned. Officials will now be able to speak wirelessly with each other, and with the central replay office. While not a new rule, the existing rule forbidding the use of the ball as a prop during TD celebrations will be extended to ban dunking the ball over the crossbar Proposals tabled for further review: Though a proposal to move the line of scrimmage on PATs to the 25 was officially tabled, there will be a change. For the first two weeks of the preseason, extra point tries will be snapped from the 20, making it roughly a 38-yard kick. (Historical data says to expect a success rate in the high 80s.) The league will monitor the results, and presumably vote on changing the rule at next year's meetings. A proposal to do away with overtime in preseason games and let them end in ties. A proposal to add six boundary-line cameras at every game to make replay reviews more conclusive. (This was the one where Bill Belichick joked that the NFL needs to hold a bake sale if they can't afford the cameras.) Proposals voted down: Owners voted against moving the kickoff from the 35-yard-line to the 40. Owners voted against a proposal that would have made every play challengeable by coaches. Owners voted against allowing officials to use replay to review personal foul penalty calls. The link also talks about the bylaws that didn't pass or where tabled 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 If you can't use the ball as a prop does that mean if you hand the ball to the referee too energetically that it's a penalty? Not sure if I'm serious or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
