That’s another one that was easy to think through before the season, but I suppose they figured, “3 attempts to get it in the end zone by each team on the five yard line, best two out of three wins, then maybe only one would win it if 1-0, but zero success is NOT going to happen, but let’s have sudden death after that just in case but we won’t need it.”
And then it happened right there on a Friday night in a game that lasted 3.5 hours and pissed off so many folks last Friday, including those looking for their local news.
And then it took them what felt like over five minutes and a commercial break to sort it out for the audience as well as the teams as Dean Blandino was in the hot seat blathering on and on after having to explain the situation to the referee, who he himself was baffled.
There is no sugar-coating it - that was bush league and steaming hot bullshit, but it never should have happened.
