I could see if he was running pass plays in the 4th quarter to
pad the score but if he was in a 4th quarter running game to run out the clock and end the misery, it should make no difference whether he was using his first string or second string to achieve the objective of running out the clock.He cannot help it if the opposing team had a bad running defense unless the committee expected him to play defense against himself
Seems to me losing a hard fought fight would feel a whole lot less humiliating than being condescended to....
But what do I know. I’m just a chick.
