League Adjust Blocked Kick Rules for 2011

After this weeks games many owners were wondering why players do no get points for blocked kicks any longer. Before we get into details, lets talk a little history on the subject.
The 2008 season the league announced no points would be awarded for blocked kicks. The reasoning is that the official website of the league insist they NEVER kept that stat EVER. I called bullshit to them and showed them the scores from the years that those stats were kept. They still insist it wasn't even after looking right at it. Their thing is that they do not get that stat provided to them except for TEAM Defenses. When the eSFL was giving points for this stat, it was often turmoil because the NFL would change who was given credit for a blocked kick as late as Thursday after the games were done.
With that said, the eSFL has announced the following rule change effective immediately:

In 2011 the commissioner WILL award points for blocked kicks IF :

1. the opposing team owner for that weeks games agrees that a player(s) blocked a kick(s) and authorizes the league to add said points to the final score of the contest. The team owner of the player who blocked the kick must initiate the action by requesting to the opponent that such points be awarded to his team for the blocked kick(s). This request and final authorization from the opposing owner must be submitted to the league (commissioner) no later than Wednesday 6 pm ET of the following week. After that point, there will be no change in scores and they will be official concerning this subject. The commissioner will make point adjustments ONLY if the adjustment will change the outcome of the contest (win or loss). It IS NOT mandatory for any owner to allow the blocked kick points to be added, therefore he may deny the request from his opponent if he wishes. If an owner cannot be contacted on the subject, the league presidents and commissioner will make the decision for that owner if requested by the owner of the player with the blocked kick. This action will be in effect in 2011, meaning this weeks games (4) are not eligible. Blocked kicks, punts, XP, FG will be Worth 10 points for the player. If the NFL gives half credits, such will be the case.

Looking forward, owners and the league have several options for future seasons. They include:

A. Using a different official site that scores blocked kicks. However, owners must remember that the same problems will occur as did in the past. The NFL often changes this stat throughout the week.

B. Keeping the opposing rule as defined above. Meaning the winning team owner may be asked by the losing team owner to allow points to be added for blocked kicks. The commissioner will make point changes to reflect the game outcome.

C. Eliminate the rule discussed in B, allow no points for blocked kicks.

I am sure there are other options and look forward to hearing them. The eSFL Now radio program is an excellent way to voice your opinions on the subject.
