To quote Herm "You play...to win...the game." And speaking of HS, I've never seen any team that I've covered not resort to the kneel when the game is well in hand.<br /><br />Having a point margin takes the focus away from winning for simple gimmicks. Like i said, the kneeldown usually never happens outside of the final 2 mins. Forcing a team to gamble away a win isn't worth it.Evan B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06823332873271854715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7719700863875944477.post-54294786831201770542010-09-26T17:42:58.497-07:002010-09-26T17:42:58.497-07:00The Miracle at the Meadowlands.

It's irritating as hell when a team is ahead by one point and they take a knee.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06138636077921769775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7719700863875944477.post-55206366110267093172010-09-26T17:37:48.896-07:002010-09-26T17:37:48.896-07:00New York Giants-Eagles. 1978.

No chance any team pulls that crap off again in this era.<br /><br />The kneel may be frustrating for some but its classy coaching. Why keep trying to run up the score when the game's in hand? Nothing I hate more than a team up big and still airing it out. It doesn't happen unless its under 2 minutes and there's no chance of a comeback. Teams gameplan their timeouts around the chance of a kneel so its only an option if there's ZERO chance.Evan B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06823332873271854715noreply@blogger.com
