Week 2 Surprises?

[knowitall]

No, I was just picking on the grown up crybabies from Football Hills who are in need of professional help over a two point conversion in a meaningless high school football game. Carry on.

Again, west33 drew 1st blood. He called me out. No one is crying. Just wondering why a coach would rub it in against another coach, that's all. If anyone needs help it's YOU. You keep responding to a topic you should have NO stake in.

You've been crying for a week. What position do you play?

[SportsFan04]

So Moldo, by your recount of last years game and your explanation of "waiving the white flag," Landis had a right to score as often as and any way he wanted because by your word, FH had not yet thrown the towel in and put their second string in this year.

I saw a very reversed under class game last week where the coach came out at halftime with his 7th graders (second string) essentially waiving the white flag after losing 18-0 with zero momentum in the first half and your Rangers kept their starters in for the most part until about 4 mins left in the 4th. Maybe this is not exactly apples to apples but it's a two way street nonetheless.

children children. sounds like a bunch of 30 - 50 somethings who can't let go of the past to me.

Somersets kicker was probably exhausted. That's why the coach went for 2.
Four extra points and four or five kickoffs in the first half!!
LOL
Wipe the blood off your lip and move on!

Somerset has been pounded by FH over the years. I woulda ran it up to even up.

[El-Moldo]

Waving the white flag means "the team that is getting beaten badly has had enough, the game is over in their minds, and the coach wants to get his starters out of there". What does this have to do with ANY winning coach finding ways to get MORE points in ways that are inconsistent with his team's regular offense? If Somerset goes for two all the time, then NO problem. If this is something uncommon for their offense at a time when they are blowing out a team, then that is uncalled for and considered poor sportsmanship in the form of rubbing it in against the opponent they are playing. Any questions, Sportsfan04?

And 7th graders only play 8 minute quarters. Since they do a lot of running plays, and the clock melts down rapidly, I say leave them in just to get some playing time. As long as the coach of the 7th graders doesn't run a lot of unorthodox plays, so what.
