26. Football is a game that has been going on for a while, loved by fans all over. But what if you were able to make some rule changes? Talk us through your new version of football, and what would be different and why?
If I could make some rule changes, there'd be quite a few I would end up making to really clean up the game. The first rule change would be to make the kickoff be a punt instead of a kick. Kickers are already used in kicking field goals and extra points all the time, they have way too much pressure on themselves. The kickoff should be a punt anyways since you're trying to help your field position which is the point of a punt. This would give punters a bigger role also, which I'd love to see more of since punting can be exciting, like coffin corners for instance. The value of punters would go way up. This would make the game more comparable to it's name of "football" since another aspect of the kicking game is added. Another thing I'd add is increase the amount of points you get for 60-70+ yarder field goals. This would really make kickers more important. I would say, for every 2 yards beyond the 60 yard line that you kick a field goal, the value of a field goal goes up one. For example, the value of a 62 yard field goal would be 4 points. The value of a 64 yard field would be 5 points and so on. Both of these changes would make the game of football more agreeable with it's name.

25. Imagine your current position was not available to be picked when you created your player. What other position would you have picked, and why?
If defensive end was not available, I would have picked cornerback probably. The reason for this is I wanted my first player to be on defense since I feel like the best way to contribute is by helping your team keep the opponents score as low as possible. For instance, you're basically a safety net for your team. The cornerback spot accomplishes that by being the most critical line of defense in the pass game, they are relied on heavily. Cornerbacks also have the opportunity to take back points the other way if they are exceptional, which is another reason to pick that spot. The best feeling would be shutting down widely renown wide receivers who expect to go off each game. If I did pick the cornerback spot, I would want to have been a physical corner. Helping in the run game as a defensive back is always very exciting to watch, and even blitzing for sacks could be a part of that game as well. Being a physical corner is also important for pressing receivers at the line and lot letting them get space on you. Being a cornerback would be the best way to help make sure your team doesn't get up a large amount of points since it's one of the last line of defenses on the team.
