| worst call in tssaa history
4th down run called a TD giving the win in OT to Friendship Christian Vs.Boyd Buc Friday night.
Look up the video on news ch 3 in Chattanooga.
Notice the ref running in from the 4yrd line to make the call. |

| That was pretty bad. That close to the play and the dude was like 2 feet short. Player knew it and obviously why he extended after already being down. Calls like that make sure you never advance past high school officiating. Never gonna move up. Hate it for the Buchanan school. Hard to lose like that!! | |

Lot of good that does for the seniors. | |

| How great would it be for Friendship Christian to refuse the win? The film clearly shows the player didn't score, so that would be a great way to be an example to the kids and show true sportsmanship.
Fat chance, I'm sure. | |

Fat chance, I'm sure. | I went to college with the Friendship Christian head coach. He is also the AD. I can assure you that there is no way in heck he is refusing the win.
Bad officiating...part of the game. Been that way since the beginning. One Super Bowl was decided on a blown call. However, I do feel sorry for Boyd Buchanon. Tough way to go out... | |

Fat chance, I'm sure. | Yup, Honer and integrity would be to much to ask from a Christian school coach. Great lesson for the kids doesn't matter how you win, as long as you win. | |

Kids had celebrated a hard fought win in their and the officials eyes. Does it stink hard for BB? Heck yeah. Is FCS's coaches integrity and honor in question? Heck no.

I asn't saying what was right or wrong. I just know John McNeal. He was a great athlete when he was young. Fierce competitor. We played against one another many times. If we caught a break from a ref, that was just part of the game.
If you swapped positions, what would you do?
Life ain't fair....it is sad but that is really true. | |
