If that's what they do, then that's what they do. But this is not like belts vs. beltless pants. We're not talking about fashion. We're talking about interrupting the flow of the game for no good reason. If you stop the game to get the net down, you give the scoring team plenty of time to set up their press; or to get a sub into the game at an opportune moment; or you may take away the long outlet pass. Why do that for something that has no bearing on the game at all? I don't get it.

If everybody in your area jumped off a bridge. . . Sorry, never mind. I was channelling my mom there for a second
