Wasn’t making an argument because objectively I can see where you would see it the way you do from your perspective. I have major issues with both of those scenarios in general not specific to any play in this game.
First off the closer guy is generally deferred to unless there is something egregious. That said I did see the Draft side judge indicating that the runners knee was down. If that was the case they should have called an officials timeout as the offense was reporting to the ball with a play that had already been called, potentially based on that initial spot. That is my opinion on that specific play and although annoying it wasn’t a huge deal.
As for winding the clock, I agree it’s when the white hat winds it but the mechanics should be that the dang ball is at least spotted prior to that occuring when there is a first down. This isn’t about the last two minutes either, it’s just a pet peeve of mine and this guy was quick with it all night (against both teams)
And not to put too fine a point on it by the white hat added time specifically because the ball being moved late was delaying our opportunity to snap the ball or so I was told. And not to rehash open sores but it’s rich that there is a social media uproar over the clock when several years ago it was of benefit to Draft at their field in an extremely tight game.
Either way the game is done and that was a very good senior laden Draft team that I could have seen make noise against any of the Bull Run teams. IF L Graber would have been healthy it may have been different. He is the epitome of what you want from a HS football player and I have a ton of respect for him laying it all out there battling his shoulder.
Ok pal, I will let you point out at what point in "some game" recently that there was an error at SD, my guess is that you are now trying to justify something to cover up for Friday.
You see, like anything, I am not going to say 100% that an ERROR, wasn't made at ANY time at SD. THAT COULD happen anywhere any time. But 6 times on ONE DRIVE, yea VERY unlikely.
Again, I am not just saying this, I have ACTUAL PROOF of this. You know, this thing we call EVIDENCE, not just some words written out.
It seems that one side wants to continue to discuss a spot and how it was handled, which in reality cost the Gladiators a couple seconds when it was moved. Great. I will 100 % agree. So now we are at 28 seconds.
Now if you REALLY want me to, I will go back and watch the ENTIRE game and see if there is a noticeable delay on the clock running in any part of the game, since you want to make a deal out of when he was doing it.
And even so, that absolutely doesn't explain a play where it doesn't run, or the plays when the ball was snapped ON A DEAD BALL.
Speaking of that, IF the clock runs when it was supposed to at other times in the game (since you admitted the WH didn't change a thing all game), will you then like to admit that what was done last drive looks EXTREMELY BAD AND I will leave it there...
The audacity to try and turn this around is unbelievable. Oh, btw there are those who have seen this evidence NOT from SD and agree, just saying...
