I'd rather they give the offense 4 outs than the ghost Base runner. Couldn't score with 4 in the 10th? Try 5 in the 11th. And so on.

It annoys me way more than it should that the free runner got the label "ghost runner". Back in my day of backyard baseball a ghost runner was what you had when playing like 3v3 or something and it was the runners turn to bat. "I'm up, ghost runner on first". Then, if I put the ball in play and they got the ball to second base before I made it to first, the ghost runner was out. Calling the man actually standing on base a ghost runner is all kinds of wrong.

When the NFL regular season ends, each playoff team - in reverse order of record - (worst to best) drafts ONE player from a non-playoff team to joing their playoff run. After that team is eliminated or wins it all, drafted player reverts back to their original team and contract - or free agency if their contract is up. The players gets an equal playoff share of the team that drafts them.

Free agents would likely want to show their best, so those would be the guys to draft.

Contracts would probably lose some value tho as teams would have less incentive signing top guys if they can play 4 extra games and risk injury. Or demand a new deal if they play well.

One reason why Pro Bowl no longer exists.

I think there would need to be some form of compensation from playoff team for the idea to work.

In college basketball and NBA, whenever there is a double-technical, both teams get to shoot appropriate "technical foul" related free throws. No possession change.

Round about way of admitting Buffalo's wide receivers suck.

ok: teams that have a player drafted for the playoffs get a 3rd round comp pick. How's that?

A defensive penalty on a 2 point conversion places the ball one inch from the goal line, not 1 yard.

What happens when Joe Burrow or Ja'Marr Chase gets drafted and then suffers a catastrophic injury? Just suck it, Bengals, I guess?

yeah i think we'd have to limit it to free agents only

also, i think some there'll be the inevitable "that's not fair" complaints when a team that just needed a specific piece suddenly has a top 3 at that position for the playoffs

but it'd make for nonstop talking points etc - which could be good for the league

as you'll see in the nba, most commentary isn't about analytics, it's about the drama

(6:50) Josh Allen pass complete short left to Amari Cooper for -2 yards, lateral to Josh Allen for 9 yards, touchdown.

Worst idea of all time. It's entirely possible that a guy like Curry could make 30+ free throws in a row.
YES! You GOT it! provides great disincentive!

Can we just have a rule that the USA aren’t allowed to host the World Cup until they understand that it’s not F1 and you can’t charge whatever you like for tickets?

Baseball

It would not really improve anything, but it would stop a silly ritual.

Rule: If a fight breaks out on the field the players in each bullpen must remain in the bullpen. Any player who leaves will be ejected from the game (leaving your team with no relief pitchers).

Baseball fights are silly enough for the players, coaches and umps to handle without adding 20 more pushing and shoving guys to the mix.

Plus, this would save all the bullpen pitchers from (1) potentially getting injured in a scuffle, or (2) pulling a muscle on the run/jog from the bullpen to the field....lol, and (3) having to pretend they are going to help win a fight or diffuse the situation.
