Our crew had this play last night (10/29) at a HS game....

 

The official covering the area blew his whistle and correctly gave the ball to K at the spot of recovery. (yes, the ball went 10+ yards - and, hit the ground)

 

 

When the K player caught the ball...he was in a sprint toward his opponents', R, goal. (The R player was near R's 45.)

 

This is an odd situation - because it is one of the few plays were officials "kill" a live ball (by blowing a whistle).

 

So --- these plays do happen. I suspect we will see more plays like this in the TSSAA play-off's.

We had it too, that is why I thought to post it here.

Here's a funny for ya...

 

of course, I love to watch all levels of football on TV.

 

My wife instructed me that she believed certain officials should never use the PA / TV microphone to explaining a foul.

 

This specific problem happened whenever "the white hat" explained an "illegal shift".

 

The funny part - some officials did not clearly pronouce the word - "shift". She thought they were leaving the "f" out of the word.

 

I guess the games (to her) should have a PG-13 rating.

 

I explained the word - so, all is now fine.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
