You can show one time in like 10 years where it mattered.
Hell, there are like 10x more spaces before periods in your posts in the last month than mussed PATs this season.

that is really the best argument for keeping PAT.
now i need to choke my pee mid-stream so i can get back to see the kickoff and eventual touchback?
if entertainment is the goal, how would taking a football play away add entertainment?
id rather have 123 footbal plays in a game than 119.
id rather leave the 1% chance a kicker may miss a PAT to tie the game in closing seconds.
isnt a missed PAT to tie or win the game a super entertaining play?
i just dont see a compelling argument to change it and i think the compelling reason would have to substantially outweigh any counter benefit to allow for a rule change.
but if entertainment is the reason ... isnt any football play more entertaining than none at all?
