Blow out

[Zoochy]

My most recent lopsided girls game
Miller Career - 93 vs Roosevelt - 13 at Gateway Tech - Final
I did work another Miller Career Academy game earlier in the season. 89-19
In this most recent game they were holding Roosevelt to single digits until they allowed 2 lay-ups in the waining minutes of the 4th quarter.
I also worked their JV game. I believe the final score was 53-2.

I had a blowout earlier this week as well. Not quite as bad as yours. Mine was like 67 - 13, girls varsity game.

Good news is we finished in 1 hour and 2 minutes.

Is that a record?

8th grade boys a week ago, 46-16 in 53 minutes. Took me 45 minutes to get home.

That's pretty good, is mine a record for varsity?

Had a 74-8 Freshman B boy's game, and a 49-1 Frosh B Girl's game this season.

I did not keep time for my game. I just know I was home real early.

I worked an 88-12 boys game, a 39-7 girls game, and a 71-5 girls game -- all in the span of about 26 days. The last two games were 6 days apart.

I'd love a close game for once.

Take mine, Rich. I've had two overtime games already this week.

Sadly, I hear guys that like these games. Easy game.....Free money......NO pressure, etc.

Gladly. Nothing wrong with OT in my book.

Sometimes I struggle keeping focus in a blowout. Especially when the losing team essentially gives up.

Rich, I was only half joking. While I'm out a little longer, at least I have a close game.

I agree. I may be crazy but I like OT games.

Not crazy at all. An OT game is a better challenge than a blow-out. The only reason some complain about them, from my take, is that they take longer.

I hate blowouts, especially late in the week. My mind sometimes starts to wander and I am sure not having any fun.

Had one game this year end on a 55-footer to win at the buzzer. I will guarantee you my attention didn't wane that day.

I only hate when the prelim game goes OT or long.
