OK, now that I have had my hand slapped for reported spam and not posting "reported", let met me finish.

The end result of this play was dead ball USC (they said PF) for taunting even though the R signaled PF. The U called taunting for #4 standing over the down player. It was not even close to being IHC but had the BJ come running in and tossed a flag for that, I would have been ok with it. The kid's helmet came off when he hit the ground and B#4 did not lead with his head or hit A in the head.

The status of the ball was 1st and Goal from the 18 after the penalty. I posted this play as well if you watch the orignal again it is the second one. I am sorry if I offend many of you fine gentlemen on this site but you now get to see that I don't make this stuff up. This is the kind of crews we get here in southern Ohia!

The R had a bad wheel and couldn't get around. I and the HC begged the LJ for a conference on the down and distance of this play but the guy on our sideline was a replacement supposedly (according to R) and he didn't call anything all night.

Anyway, I know none of you guys that come here would do this kind of work. It is just very frustrating that we have this kind of crew do our game.

Encroachment.

What was the deal with the chopper?

No call.

Since last game in old stadium, local ambulance company delivered game ball. I think they plan to drop some coin on the stadium upgrade and wanted some pub. #55 receiving the football is my son. Senior captain. of course we could not use the actual ball they delivered because it hadn't been approved by the U. LOL!

Of course this did delay opening kick off about 7 minutes so I guess we were lucky to not get a DOG on first kick off!

You would think that whoever planned this could have figured out how long the helicopter thing would take and could have worked it out so the game didn't start late.

I think wind was a factor and there was a possiblity of scrubbing the mission.
In the grand scheme of things I don't think 7 minutes was a big deal.

I would've been happy to check the ball in. Our LJ checks in the game balls (while the U and I meet with the coaches) and we had one delivered this season by members of the cross country team who ran the ball to the BJ at K's free kick line. He checked it in on the spot.

A 7 minute delay? Who cares, really?

Or, in other words, some people just need to "Lighten up, Francis."

who cares??

No one did care. I guess the U could have approved the ball as well, we just used one of the other 7 we had already checked in.
