I had 2 situations in my Friday night game that I wanted to get your opinions on :
(1) Kickoff return by R1;
(2) R1 is grabbed by K1 @ R'30;
(3) Before his forward progress is stopped R2 rips the ball out of his hands;
(4) R2 is in advance of R1 at the time;
(5) R2 goes for TD.
I conference with the two covering officials and was told R2 ripped the ball out of R1's hands.
Illegal forward handing...or not...you make the call
Later in the same game, with A @ B-30 1/10 ;
(1) B1 intercepts pass and goes for TD;
(2) U & I have flags for blindside block @ A'30 before score;
(3) A flag is then noticed back @ LOS;
(4) the wing informs me that B was "offsides";
(5) I announced to the frenzied masses that what they just saw was an optical illusion and never occurred as the ball had became dead with the encroachment;
(6) it was now 1/5 A @ B's 25.
A few plays later, my brain began to function ,and I felt I should have considered the BSB - a personal foul - as a dead ball foul and tacked that on, too.
Would you....or wouldn't you....you make the call...
