I still don't think the league officials should be in the business of lining up players for teams. That's their job.
Now if a WR or OL is asking if he's lined up correctly, that's different. But to take the initiative is wrong and can easily lead to imbalances, collusions to help one team and not the other, etc....
The official reason is to prevent injuries to the longsnapper. Better to prevent it than penalize it after it happens.

This probably makes no sense but I never thought Seattle was a good place for Harvin. He has chronic migraines (as do I) and the sun is out in Seattle what like 9 days a year? I could be way off base here but as someone with experience there are like 3-5 days a year I can't even get out of bed let alone play in the NFL.

Oh I agree that the Seahawks made a mistake trading for Harvin in the first place. He's been overrated his entire pro career. Fortunately for him the Jets have a shit ton of cap room that can absorb his overpaying contract.

I like Harvin a lot but agreed he has been overrated. He's a playmaker. Maybe a change will do him good.

I had to watch the replay 2-3 times before I realized what was going on (aided by the fact that the CBS halftime show is staffed by morons), but once you see it...wow.

And now Jeff Fisher with balls of steel on that fake punt deep in STL territory. Sorry man, that would be a tough way to go down.

Good day for Nate, Colt McCoy just came to the rescue to earn the Redskins a win. Good to see him get another chance.

The worst thing in the NFL is when Troy Aikman calls a Cowboys game. Unlistenable.

I'm just glad Joe Buck is off for baseball, where he belongs.
