St. Leo game video

Someone else can probably embed the video, but here is a link to the article where I saw it. Wow!

Ugly scene. It's unfortunate that it was missed by the crew. The only video I saw was just that very small snippet. Impossible to know if anything had preceded this that might have the officials on "high alert". The L was maybe straightlined and looking through the back of the player who threw the elbow?

That's all I can think of as to why this blatantly flagrant (2) act was missed.

I guess the lesson to learn would be to always move to improve when you have offense AND defense in your area.

This wouldn’t have happened if they had talked about it in pregame.

Is that the best y'all can do? No one can anticipate crap like that cheap shot happening, which is why we need to be on full alert all the time during our games.

IIRC, ilyazhito, you are somewhere on the spectrum. This tip might help you out: Blue text is sarcasm.

I know it was sarcastic, but I don't know what Camron Rust and SCOfficial actually mean.

They don't mean anything. They're being sarcastic.

No, I actually mean something...

Someone usually says something about pregame when something goes wrong as if doing something different in pregame would fix it. But, you could have pregamed for a week and it still wouldn't have prevented this. And I'm pretty sure that was SC's thought as well.

Either: Blue font = meaning disguised as sarcasm.

sarcasm can't have meaning? It's not like one is 0 and the other is 00 and you can't have both together.

What happened in the video is a classic case of you can't fix stupid. The player was stupid for doing that cheapshot, and was rightfully suspended.
