Talk:Try (American football)

I propose this article be made to redirect to the Extra Point article. Gr8white 06:05, 4 December 2007 (UTC)


 * No, they are different. A extra point is kicking a field goal during a try.--Smokedadro (talk) 01:24, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Then why does this article say "...also called extra point(s)"? And the first sentence of the "extra point" article says the "...convert, conversion, try, extra point, point after try, or PAT...".  Two articles describing essentially the same thing and redundant in my opinion. Gr8white (talk) 07:33, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It is like that because many people do not understand the terminology (let alone the rest of the regulations) of football, or any sport for that matter. People call backs tight ends, people call backward passes laterals, people call fouls penalties, people call officials referees....some people do not understand what a try is therefore other names of what the average fan or TV announcer calls it are given.--Smokedadro (talk) 22:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Be that as it may, there's nothing in this article that isn't covered in the other one. What's the point of having two articles covering the same territory? Gr8white (talk) 05:41, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
