Talk about a sport that needs rule changes, how about one that actually takes 4 hours to play and has about 10 minutes of actual play like the NFL.
Ultimately the same criteria applies to both:

"Why change? Its working."

They are both immensely popular and profitable sports just as they are, so whats the incentive for the powers that be to change them?

People can bitch and moan and lambaste the game around the world. So long as the TV stations still pay the subscription fees and TV rights, etc.
