Mercy Rule???
Impartial_Observer replied to Fortune Teller's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I am basing my post on an email from the office read to us at last night's meeting. This was sent to the Football chairs. -

Hoosier Hills Conference

Impressive physical specimen. Big, strong, athletic. Tough to tell, PC was pretty vanilla offensively. Nice young man, very courteous, yes sir, no sir. I wasn’t able to really see any passes. -

Couldn't tell you the score of either of the varsity games I've seen this year....... -
Hoosier Hills Conference

OK, way back in my day, in Basketball season WTTV 4 used to have the Tuesday night game of the week on TV. I think I was a junior and we played at Shelbyville. Not sure if we won or not, but our BS chant was clearly audible on the TV. One of my prouder moments in high school. -

Not sure what it's like now, but when I was involved, Seymour's may have been one of the worst. I know they both (AD and assistant AD) got tired of listening to me complain about their stupid restrictions on students. -

High school sports should be fun. Unfortunately in today's society many schools opt for the no fun allowed policy. And then everyone wonders why students don't show up. -
Honestly I don't see what all the hub bub over this Wal Mart thing is. 1. Wal Mart hasn't sold hand guns in the lower 48 that I am aware of. 2. Local store typically has a lousy selection of guns, I would never consider buying a gun there. 3. Locally I may have bought some bulk shot gun shells from them in the past, but their selection of ammo is less than stellar, and the pricing is not that attractive. 4. They have asked people not to open carry, so what? You can still carry. Most folks don't open carry anyway. 5. Patronize your local gun shop, patronize your local businesses period. They're part of your community. Any big box is one bad quarter away from closing up.

I literally lol’d when they made the statement was made about sideline cameras. -
New Zealand was praised for their swift legislative action on guns following a mass shooting, and Australia has been held up as a success in firearm restrictions, but how successful have they really been? https://reason.com/2019/07/08/noncompliance-kneecaps-new-zealands-gun-control-scheme/ https://www.ammoland.com/2019/07/new-zealand-encounters-problems-enforcing-gun-ban-without-registration/

Accountability for Referees
Impartial_Observer replied to POTLUCK's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
How do you know they're not being held accountable? The officials you see on TV are calling/not calling what they're told to call/not call. If they don't, they won't be there long. I believe it was last year two officials were fired by the NFL during the season which is not unprecedented, but it is highly unusual. The Big Ten fired an entire crew in the last couple of years. In my opinion, officials should not be part of the story, it's about the two teams playing the game, but I know that's not always the case. So let me ask you this, suppose this SOB who made this bogus call against "your" team and "cost them the game" gets grilled by the media and is held accountable, how does that make you feel better about the loss? How does that change anything? Or is it you just get to feel better because the media will get their pound of flesh? -
The New Normal, round 2
Impartial_Observer replied to Muda69's topic in Gridiron Out of Bounds's Out of Bound Forum
-Eleven released a statement: “We take the cleanliness of 7-Eleven stores very seriously so thank you for making us aware of this incident and allowing us to investigate this matter.” State health inspectors are investigating. OK - SF is really ok with freedom of religion and would normally empathize and maybe even assist with a person's desire to worship or otherwise recognize their deity or observe a custom........But I would HAVE to draw the line here.......Thank god I don't eat 7-11 food......I have had their coffee however....... There's a 7-11 I frequent in Cocoa Beach right across the street from Sam Sheppard Park, the only thing I've ever purchased there are refrigerated cans and ice.....I'll make a note of it though. -
I didn't see what happened and don't care to comment on it. As @JustRules said, a replaced player has 3 seconds to begin to leave the field. The foul is illegal substitution. The situation you describe I've seen happen many times, if the replaced player begins to leave in a timely manner (no I don't do a count, I'm not going to split hairs was it 2.8 seconds or was it 3.4), we let it go.
