I hate the stinking tush push. It's a feckin' rugby play.
Why?
It's supposed to be a physical sport. Not all NFL teams are even able to pull it off effectively.
Outlawing it would seem to be one more step to pussifiy the sport.

I guess I should have voted to overturn the defensive holding auto 1st down, but I didn't check anything except
not being a robot.
I don't know, I just hate the play lol. It's boring, football is boring enough already, and I played hooker in rugby. Might as well call that play a scrum. I also hate the new kickoff, which looks stupid and contrived to me. Also, I hate Taylor Swift and she can blow me.

Banning it is only hurting the Super Bowl Champs. I agree that it’s pussification. If it’s such a huge advantage to the offense, why is it that really only a small handful of teams can execute it?
