Tex and I are scheduled for 10:00-10:15pm tomorrow night.

[gschwendt]

You'll probably see a restart for me. I got started but my power flickered midway through the first quarter and lost connection. I'll wait and retry tomorrow.

[psusnoop]

Tex and I have rescheduled for tomorrow night same time.

Pretty piss poor play call there IMO. On your own 34 and a fake punt with 6 min left? No reason to keep going if it came to that

I had a long written up reply, but I don't think I need to justify the call there.

why not? your up with 6 mins left. on your own 34. We play sim style and no coach in the world would do that.

I was up 2 points with 4 minutes and 50 seconds remaining in the game. It's not like I ran an offensive play to gain the 1yd like a speed option or FB dive. I ran a fake punt. Something that is easily defended and leaves the defenders an extremely high chance to hold and get the ball back.

You can question my play call but I think I have a great history of being one of the more stand up people when it comes to playing sim style.

[texacotea]

I was in punt safe zone which made it that much worse. my biggest issue with it is that you were so deep on your side of the ball. Sim style play is "suppose" to resemble what we see on sat/sun. I dont believe we will see that.

Im not questioning your play style I believe you are one of the more stand up people but I believe that play call there was cheap

I'd like to hear what the group thinks, I don't think I did anything wrong there.
