| Re: fouling to win the game
Hockey you're put at a disadvantage. You lose that player for 2 minutes. You gain "physical presence" which is only established for so long. At least when I played hockey our coach told me to be physical but to NOT draw a penalty. Only thing I can think of for that is fighting. The only time I fought in a hockey game I got a game misconduct and had to sit out 2 weeks of practice and miss 5 games. Different in the NHL but still you have to win the fight.
I think a Safety has adequate punishment for "penalty" losing the ball and giving up 2 points is adequate in my mind.
Baseball working the count is like Intentional Fouling? I don't quite get that reference. Elaborate?
It's a pretty pussy strategy. Had the almighty defensive powerhouse Kansas Jayhawks played their "STELLAR TEAM DEFENSE" we might not even be having this discussion.
Also interestingly enough Necro... isn't fouling kind of admitting that you can't play adequate enough defense to win the game? I thought those people in the stands PAID for those tickets to SEE the teams play. Not give up and foul people because the defense can't win them the game in the closing seconds.
I guess fouling to win a game isn't that far fetched of a strategy in America....
I mean we did BOMB for PEACE didn't we?
EDIT: I'm pretty much done with this argument as either way I know Blade's going to come back with some retort about Kansas blah blah. I know he loves Kansas. He knows I hate Bill Selfish. I don't think we're going to be getting anywhere so if he feels the need to "Win" so he can pat himself on the back. He may do so if he wishes. |
