Ain't that the truth. Especially on a kickoff.

Had a play Wednesday where B had 10, A ran 70 yards for a touchdown against them. Got to the end zone, someone on B noticed they had 10. I said, "This game is hard with 11, gentlemen. It's even harder with 10." And they still didn't get another guy on for the try, so they gave up 2 more points.
