Some input, so I can enjoy my Thanksgiving

Instinctively I suspended my count until the kid retrieved the ball and picked it back up at 3.

Serious T-day indigestion is at stake.

blindzebra,
I would have continued the count so I was not rewarding a stoopid player with the advantage. That's an intent of the rule, I think, to deny a team from using up time [while leading]. The game clock was ticking, wasn't it? The losing team didn't like that, did they?

QED, no indigestion.
