As much as I think this is a good idea; why is it I can't help feeling like in 5-years I am going to read some article about it wasn't a good idea?

Anything they do with kickers is only going to be temporary. That's all they do, there may be a slight drop off but eventually they will get back to being near automatic. Young kickers are generally the only ones that struggle really bad. The only real way to make kicks more difficult is by extending the hash marks like college but that gives offenses an advantage IMO

Yeah, just wait, the footballs will be hacked and then the personal information of all the kickers and ball handlers will be stolen and become public. I would start thinking about RFID blocking shoes and gloves.

I think it's a sign that "The End Really is Nigh". It starts with footballs, then other balls, then the Dark Lord cometh.
