Message: [QUOTE="hburgcuse, post: 464970, member: 1825"] But you can't just end the game at the 2-minute warning, while you're preaching the spirit of competition. In the spirit of competition, the offense still needs to execute the snap, and the defense still has the right to try to knock the ball loose - even though they will be called dirty by the rest of the crybabies in the league. You can't compare football rules to basketball rules - it's apples and oranges. You may as well equate it to track - when a runner is way out in front because he is much faster, by x number of meters, should he be stopped so that the runners finishing behind him can move up closer to him, in order to give them a better chance of winning the race? Why should a football team who did not do enough to win a game be given a better chance to win the game? Just to entertain us for an additional couple minutes? [/QUOTE]
