If you've ever entered The Bluffton Icon high school, college or NFL football contests, you realize that it's three yards and a cloud of dust, week after week.
Although it is hardly July, The Icon is working on this fall's contest - call it the dream stage.
We'd like to hear from contestants on ways we could make the contests more interesting. One thing for certain is that our tie-breakers need repair. But, beside that, if you could create a weekly football contest, how would you do it?
We welcome views from previous players and potential new players. To refresh you memories, last season we had a high school contest and a college contest running for 10 weeks. When those contest ended we created an NFL weekly contest. Then, we held a college bowl contest.
We welcome your views. You may simply respond with your ideas on the comment spot on this column, or you may e-mail your ideas to: [email protected].
Now, let's break the huddle and throw the hook and ladder play at them.
