Petition to get rid of ties in football

Posted by silentarchimedes on November 18, 2008

I just created an online petition to get rid of ties in football. Please sign it:

There should be no ties in football. Although it has only happened 17 times since the 1974 Overtime Period Rule, when it does happen, there’s a feeling of, “Why did I waste the past 3 hours watching or playing this game!” Imagine paying over $100+ to watch a tie? The NHL has removed ties as a possible outcome and the shootout period is now one of the most exciting sports events. The NFL needs to do something similar and at least get rid of ties. PLEASE!!!

-Concerned fans and oblivious football players (like Donovan McNabb)
