1 in FB going back to '75
2 in BB going back to '73

Rule change: burgers and beer for everyone after the 3rd OT. Then we toss a coin.

We need more schools like this. It's like happy hour, but free. Nothing quite like a beer in the shower after a game.

1. 3 OTs in basketball, 6 OTs in soccer (prior to the state instituting the kicks from the mark tiebreaker following 2 OTs).

2. I would support the players receiving a sixth foul if the game were to reach 2 OTs. All individuals who were DQ'd for five fouls would be eligible to return and play. My reasoning is that 2 OT equates to a full extra quarter of playing time.
