Question

Did anyone catch that the umpire called a neutral zone infraction at the end of the game? The comentator had just stated that if he was lined up over the center that he would make a swipe for the ball. In the replay it clearly shows that the nose made an attempt to swipe the ball from the center but the ball had already been snapped.

I saw this almost exact play in a anklebitter game this past season. I was the white hat and just before the center snaped the ball, the ball was swatted. The nose had got his hand behind the ball and took it out of the centers hand. I called enchrochment.

Does anyone else feel that the call was not the umpires to make?
