Me: So....deregulation?
Con: Haha no not those views either
Me: Which views, exactly?

surely botching the wording but there's a 100% correct @benjaminsolak.bsky.social take about how intentional grounding is backwards, it regularly fails to penalize guys who are clearly throwing the ball at the ground intentionally but sometimes penalizes unintentional misses/miscommunications

if the quarterback is very clearly being wrapped up and they throw the ball away it needs to be an automatic intentional grounding. we have to do something about this woke nonsense

People have been indoctrinated against two-point conversions by announcers who've spent decades repeating each other saying Don't Chase Points. Actually every football play is about chasing points
I’ll break it down another way:
If wait and you don’t get it, the game is over
If you try now and don’t get it, you need two scores
What’s better?

Sorry. This still makes zero sense. If you don’t get it the first time you need…..wait for it…..two scores instead of one!

For those with angry relatives like mine, the quick explainer:
They gotta for 2 at some pt
If they wait til the end of the game and fail, it’s automatically over.

I feel like announcers are particularly hostile to this specific strategy (which has 100% airtight logic, not even really debatable) because their entire goal is to keep people watching for longer and when you miss on the first 2pc people tune out

I really think that even most people who think language policing was a huge problem over the past 5-10 years have no patience for the disgusting little freaks who have tried to bring back "retarded" as a slur. It's just so low-rent and such a tell that the person using it is not worth your time

Strong message from Congressman Moulton:
