It would be convenient to try to lay blame on any one or two of the crew but in reality, all three made errors on that play.

Not saying it was. Just noting another contributary action to what went wrong.

Who cares about the darn travel? That pales in comparison to the out of bounds call that does not take an issue of when the player might have controlled the ball. We miss travels all the time. We should not miss a player stepping on the line ever that clearly. Now was that a mistake? Of course it was, but I can get over a missed travel as I am sure there were other plays during that game we could argue was a travel, but can we miss an out of bounds? Heck no. We cannot even agree when the player had the darn ball. But we know the player stepped on the line.
Peace

The bottom line is this -- you CANNOT miss impact plays that can possibly alter the outcome of a game -- at any level.
Burr and Higgins are old-school guys and I'm sure they just chalked it up to either "I didn't see it" or they had the clock at 00.0, because Burr walked off like nothing even happened. . . If they were going to call a travel, it would've been around 2.1, but either way, SOMETHING needed to be called and you can't miss obvious plays. That, first and foremost, for all of us who wear stripes, trumps everything. I feel bad for Walton out of all of them, because I'm sure he's going to be put up as the "Lee Harvey Oswald" in this mess that if Burr didn't pick it up, then Higgins should. Nuff said, pencils down, game over. |
