Pretty sure ball is dead as soon as the kicking team recovers.Holy shit, Eagles almost ran the onside kick in for a TD.
I don't think you can advance an onside kick.Holy shit, Eagles almost ran the onside kick in for a TD.

Also, Dawson got iced on a game winning kick (he hit the iced kick) and then missed the real one. Icing works!
Touching isn't enough, you have to have possession and then fumble it. If that happens, kicking team can advance the ball.What if onside is touched by receiving team?

Theyre playing in Mexico City anywaysRaiders beating the Jets on the perfectly groomed baseball diamond. Patriots play there 11/19 but there will be sod in the infield then.
Oh that's right. Wonderful.Theyre playing in Mexico City anyways
No they don't.Raiders beating the Jets on the perfectly groomed baseball diamond. Patriots play there 11/19 but there will be sod in the infield then.
A few years ago, 2013 I think, they delayed the first game of the season in Denver because of lightning. Not sure this is a new thing. If lightning strikes, the show will not go on.Can someone tell me the last time there was a documented hit of lightning at any major league baseball or football field ? Some of the things we now are terrified of mystify me...like peanut butter.
The fact that we've been lucky up to now doesn't make the risk reasonable.Can someone tell me the last time there was a documented hit of lightning at any major league baseball or football field ? Some of the things we now are terrified of mystify me...like peanut butter.
Just how low does the probability have to be before it's more than 'luck' ?The fact that we've been lucky up to now doesn't make the risk reasonable.
Who is this?Unbelievable to me that an NFL QB can't take a snap under center. Big disadvantage in a short-yardage situation not to be able to force the D to defend the QB sneak.
It's not about safety, it's about liability.Just how low does the probability have to be before it's more than 'luck' ?
NOAA says that during the 10-year period of 2004-2013, 33 people were killed and 234 were injured by lightning strikes annually. On average, lightning strikes are fatal to about 10 percent of people who are struck.Jul 16, 2015
Based on those stats Mauf you should never EVER get behind the wheel of a car again because you've just been 'lucky' so far.
How many people do something as risky as sitting in the upper reaches of a stadium during a lightning storm?Just how low does the probability have to be before it's more than 'luck' ?

Goff.Who is this?
So they didn't say he couldn't take a snap from under center? I'm just trying to understand. That would be like Jon Lester not being able to throw to first.Goff.
Unless the Rams think the shotgun is good goalline strategy.
Not going to hijack, but aside from a few cases on golf courses and one literally in a hut at the summit of a mountain....doesn't actually happen in courts, especially since a significant amount of strikes/injuries occur inside all sorts of structures, so unless you are advocating a requirement to provide Faraday Cages that can accommodate 50,000 at each venue....it's one more example of theater to appear to be caringThat too.
It's not unusual in college -- lots of spread-system teams never practice putting the QB under center. I just haven't seen an NFL QB who hadn't figured that out, and I would've thought getting Goff comfortable under center (at least in short-yardage situations) would've been a priority at some point last year.So they didn't say he couldn't take a snap from under center?

With OAK on the road the next 2 weeks, this might be the last NFL game ever played on a diamond. Next home game is 10/8, after the A's season will have already come to merciful end.Raiders beating the Jets on the perfectly groomed baseball diamond.
