OOC #3
when my youngest son is playing..they had 2 Undefeated season in a row..and his last season they went 8-2 and lost the first round of the playoffs.
that coached played his wieners both ways, almost to the end... we would win maes 60 -6.. stuff like that... now? those schools are giving us payback, ebcause we don't have the kids we used to have.
when I coached the younger kids..we played the first 3 quarters 'for real'..then the 4th quarter I used by younger guys and switch of positions fo they would have playing time under thier belt.. sometimes? we still scored.. and I flat out told the other coaches, that was on them.. I have 2nd team kids who want to score..they are goign to score!
Now.. there is a League rule here in PA( at least in our area,,there is like 3 differ4ance conferenced for A...AA...AAA and AAAA.. but they all have the same rule.. if you are up by 35 points the clock runs, except for change of positions and such.. first down, the clock starts as soon as the pall sets.. ect ect.
we played one tea, this year, that forfeited the game before us, due to lack of kids... They played us..and got another one hurt... and foreit the rest of the season ( 2 more games at that point..including the crossover match our West PAc.. against the Heritage conference ( 1st plays 1st all the way down to 10th plays 10th )….we were up 28 nothing... and I was talkign to a Ref when the PAT team came on, and I said " yuou're gonna have your hands full the 2nd half ( there is bad blood between the two towns) but the shortened the last 2 quarters from 10 Minutes to 8...and half way through the 3rd quarter we had our 35 points do the clock ran... we won 42-0
