Scuba_ref,

Well all that stuff you are talking is hyperbole. Blood spattering profusely is something most of us have never seen and something tells me you have never seen it either and never will. I have seen compound fractures and other serious injuries many times and never had an issue come up where stopping the clock is even an issue. As I said before, most plays end in a matter of seconds, even the long ones. You do not need to stop many plays because that extra second that you say is at issue. But then again, we have people to make a point have to pull out of their behinds the most extreme situation when we are only talking about a helmet being twisted and if that applies to the rule about the helmet coming off. Not surprised this would bug you to have someone not agree with you.

Peace

Quick note:

Calling someone a "jerk off" is going to get a poster some time away. Just sayin'.
