Bear, I asked those questions last year to no avail. It doesn't matter if your 4th string running backs are scoring straight up the middle. The rule is jacked up, and if you score too many points than you are doomed. You will not get a chance to defend yourself in front of the board unless they determine you are worthy. I know the coaches from nederland last year and they were all stand up guys. All of these arguments have been made. I partially agree with you. I don't believe in stomping a team while they are down but when it is done woth 3rd and 4th stringers tough luck. Sadly to say, that is not the way it works here. "Inflategate", that was pretty funny whomever said that earlier.
