I don't know my friend. Seems to me you should be a little more understanding when it was "your stupidity" or incompetence that started the whole thing.

That's BS Derock, and you know it. When the whistle blows, the play is dead. PERIOD. Unfortunately, an IW causes the ball to be dead from time to time. If a player keeps running after a couple of blasts on the whistle, I'm gonna flag it. If you want to talk stupidity, how about the coach for telling the player to keep running even though he knew the play was dead. There's too great of a chance for someone to get hurt in that situation. So if the player got drilled, I bet you'd want a late hit called also. IW's are always unfortunate, but your stupidity doesn't need to make it any worse. There's rules to correct this situation, because it happens. Get over it and move on.

Why is your IW "unfortunate" but a coach instructing his player to continue running untouched to the endzone "stupidity"? The way I see it you have "two" cases of stupidity on this play and the initial one is what started it all! Look at it this way, if the IW was a flag against the official then we would have off-setting penalties.
