There is no such thing as fair when it comes to football or sports or even life in general. So stop saying not fair unless you are talking about the county fair which is full of rides and animal shows and games of chance which by the way are all rigged to not be fair!
VERY GOOD POINT!!
COACH : ".....that's not fair
??"
OFFICIAL : "....but it's the rule
!!"
COACH : ".....then the rule's not fair
!"
We all are faced with rules and laws that we don't feel are fair. We have the following choices:
(1) write to our congressman/ police chief/ rules committee rep;
(2) realize that these same rules/laws affects all others, too;
(3) grown ,moan ,rant , rave , and develop HBP or ulcers.
