Wait until a coach comes on the field and tells them to pick it up and run?? Baloney!

You can cut and paste till the cows come home, but you are wrong (again).


Even the AD from the team that lost admitted that the ball was still live.

If that 5 seconds takes the other players to make a play on the ball.

the way I read it is says ball is motionless and no player is making an attempt to recover it. That happened, blow it dead!

I have a question - a real, honest question.

Is your intent in posting here to actually learn?

If not ... is your intent simply to show everyone by example how bad an official would be if he only read the rulebook and never went to any classes or clinics.

If not that... what is the intent of your continuing misinterpretation of rules and failure to listen when it's explained to you?

I am just saying that according to the rules as written, it should have been blown dead!
That is my intent. I think it is a bs way for those kids to lose a game. Now had a smart kid from K immediately picked up the ball and ran to the EZ with it! Good play, for the ball to lay there 5 seconds and no official to blow it dead is BS. Just my opinion.

Reading the rule book doesn't make you an expert on rules application.

You've been given the interpretation three times, yet you act like my 11 year old nephew that refuses to admit he's wrong.

I'd be willing to bet that you would not take kindly to one of your players telling you that his blocking technique is the correct way over the way you and your peers teach it.

I have no problem with the play. Recover the ball and none of this is an issue. There is a problem with players celebrating too soon and not finishing the play. Seems like a theme lately across football.

Peace
