Desperately Grasping At Straws ...

Yeah. That's what I meant, when it's no longer a real game and the strategy becomes a desperation move. I'm not talking about a three point game with thirty seconds to go. That's still a real game that anybody can win.
If a team is grasping at straws they're probably going to drown. As an official, I think to myself, "Why bother", but on the other hand, "Hope springs eternal". I've seen weird late game stuff happen on television, but never in real life.
