TXMike,
The reason is because I can't do anything about things that happened in the past. Period. All I can do is help the players to be successful on the next play. That is all I have to work with. So as the clock runs down, each play becomes more and more critical. When we get to the last play of the game, we have to make sure all things are right by everyone -- coaches, players, officials, everyone with a vested interest in a particular game.
You are right, usually this doesn't happen. But sometimes it does, as was the case described.
