Last night, last HS game of the year for me. Fourth quarter and we have a violation of some sort. I see the timer waving at me. I look at the scoreboards and they are both out. I head over to the table while asking my partner, "2:05 left, right?" He shrugs.

Plug finds its way back into the socket or something and the board comes on. 2:04. Visiting coach ribs me about not knowing the right time. If the scoreboard would've reset, it would've been a pretty good thing that I didn't wait until the last two minutes of the fourth to start with my game awareness.
