4. You ever had a gut feeling something would happen watching sports?

I remember I did Saints vs Jaguars -- they needed a win at the last game of the season to stay alive (I think as it turned out the Saints would have been eliminated anyway) so I had a feeling they were going to lateral their way to the touchdown then had a feeling the kicker would miss the XP to tie the game and sure enough both happened. One of the crazy finishes I ever seen all-time.

The issue comes back to why do they need to do an extra point and go from there but this changes a lot of things not just for making the PAT more difficult but I 7s for TDs was more of a reward for FGs and odds are still high for a 15 PAT but a lot more 6s for TDs and 2 FGs to even it out. I liked the funky scoring system.
