I had a MS "playoff" game last Wed. evening. Home is up 30-12 when visitors score with :26 on the clock. On the try A doesn't score and the wings flag IF. I signal the foul and declined and get ready to split off for the kickoff when the LJ comes in to tell me that B coach wants to accept the penalty.

"What the #@$% does he want to do that for?"
"He wants the kids to get another play."
"This is when a kid will break his #@$+% leg or blow his #@$% knee out."
"He wants another play."
"I hope K recovers the inevitable onside kick."

We bring both teams back and run a once again unsuccessful try.
Earlier the same coach takes another IF penalty on second down when the play lost yardage. The difference in distance was about two yards between the play and the penalty. He chose the penalty and repeating the down vs. 3rd down.
