How to Make NFL Football Exciting

Football has gotten to be such a bore. So many time outs. Refs ignore half the holding calls. Here's how I would improve the game: One: All 60-minute players with only injury substitutes. Two: Special no-gripper gloves for linemen. Three: Four-points for a running drop-kick. Four: If in the last two minutes of each half the offensive team does not advance the ball five years in two downs, it loses the ball on the spot, which eliminates kneels by the QB. Five: Any player who celebrates by acting kike a chest-thumping ape would be caged on the sidelines for five minutes, with no substitute player allowed on the field. Six: Cheerleading outfits would be so skimpy as to engender a fatwa from radical Muslim clerics. Seven: No timeouts over 30-seconds. Eight: Four timeouts each game. Eight: No electronic communications between coaches and players on the field. Nine: Players don't have to treat the opposing QB like breakable china. Ten: Players can pull any hair hair extruding from a helmut.
Now that's football!
