I wonder what would happen to baseball if every home run over 380 ft. counted as two runs. I suspect that baseball would, over time, become a home run derby, without any of the strategy that makes the game interesting today. That is what the three point shot has done to basketball.

Maybe the NBA should enforce their rules on Traveling?

Increase the diameter of the official NBA basketball from ~9.5” to 10”, and simultaneously decrease the rim diameter from 18” to 15”. It would probably kill the game, both from the player’s and the fan’s viewpoints, but I would love to see them struggle with that.

I don’t watch or pay for any stinkin sportsball...... I guess three pointers are crowd pleasers. Same as triples and home runs.
So by all means, let’s alter the NBA rules to have more of them, for our Deep State bread n circuses.

Matter of fact, the NBA should make normal baskets, worth 3 points. And make 3 pointers, worth 5 points. Yowza!

How can anyone stand watching soccer, unless they are high, or lobotomized? Where ties are OK. Where scores are so rare. Ice hockey has low scores, but lots of skating action that I respect.

I saw lacrosse youth leagues at my local park. I rate it much higher than soccer. And better exercise for the boys and girls. Soccer is that stupid sport that denies use of your hands. And has youths doing headers to get CTE. Some youth leagues eliminated headers.

We need to make three pointers made by white folks to count as four points.

That would be “equity”.

Lol.
