Browns return specialist Josh Cribbs doesn't like the possibility that the NFL will replace the kickoff, the Associated Press reports. Commissioner Roger Goodell said this week that the league's competition committee will consider eliminating the kickoff in the offseason. The league previously moved the kickoff from the 30 to 35-yard line to cut down on violent collisions, hoping to reduce head injuries. Cribbs, who shares the league record for kickoff return touchdowns with Seattle's Leon Washington, said banning the kickoff would change the league "drastically" and that if the move was made the NFL would be "just like intramurals."

Goodell and his cronies are talking about it. What's that, maybe 10-20 guys? Poll owners, coaches and ALL player and see what they say. Even poll the vets suing the NFL because they've got scrambled eggs for brains now. If they all say get rid of it, fine.
