Another one we discussed at our chapter this season....

With the down marker showing 4th down, A32 is stopped short of the line to gain. The referee then signals 1st down for B. The coach of A then asks for time out to discuss with the referee that it was only 3rd down. The officials all agree that the previous play was in fact only 3rd down.
So now it's 4th down. B might be upset, but that's too bad. They'll have to learn that a million Chinese won't care tomorrow.
