SI.com - MMQ: Eric Winston guest columnist

[Keith]

Yay for Eric. Real football talk in late June.

1. He's wrong on moving the Super Bowl to a Saturday night. Sunday night, Monday night, and Thursday nights are best for getting eyes on the TV.

Look, it's the Super Bowl, it will draw huge ratings pretty much whenever, but Sunday night works just fine as is.

2. I'm not opposed to getting rid of divisions, just having two conferences... but losing interconference play would be tough, and having a put-upon rival is lame unless it's one of the very few premier ones.

3. All for expanding the roster, especially the game day roster. As for a minor league, it's called NCAA. MLB and NBA drafts high school players; NFL does not.

4. Rookie wage scale makes sense to just about everyone, but basing too much of the compensation on playing time bonuses penalizes the good picks on great teams. Obviously this would make sense to someone like Winston who joined a miserable team and needed him to start ASAP. I wonder if he would think this if he went to a 15-1 team instead of a 1-15 one.

5. Change OT yes, but play it as a full 15-min quarter, i.e. no sudden death. This solution eliminates all the put-upon foolishness of possession inside the 20 (what is this Eric, Texas HS football?) or that Mickey Mouse muck the NCAA uses.
