Position players pitching is a fun part of the game. Of course they want to change it
George Will, for whom I have a soft spot despite my inimical opposition to the cornerstones of his life (Cubs baseball, Republicanism, General Dweebishness) has a really good line about how football combines the two worst aspects of American life: violence and committee meetings. He was quipping about huddles, of course, but he was also on to something particularly grim about the sport — the way every aspect of the game swirls around the rules.
Football is weird in that sense.
