The Chcago Bears QB did a hesitation before his grounding the ball after a hand-to-hand snap a week or so ago which resulted in a 10-second run-off and proved to be the final play of the game. Oops!

Not all Coaches or AD's see circumventing the rules as cheating. You often hear coaches say, it isn't illegal if they don't call it!


If you aint Cheating, You aint Trying, is an old Coaching Adage!

I disagree with the philosphy but I can see the merit in it!

A lot of thieves also think if they ain't stealing it ain't trying, and if they don't get caught it's no a crime. We each get to set our own standards.

Most of the coaches who feel cheating is OK if you get away with it, aren't stupid enough to admit their character deficiency publicly

No but I have heard many of them speak at clinics and they say, hey we teach this technique, it is illegal but it is never called so what is the downside?
