How to gain 37 yards by being out of bounds

… or, how BD6 will be bored in THIS sports thread.

####Leave it to a STANFORD alum to figure out this NFL loophole

On the kickoff, the Detroit Lions sprung the ball to the three-yard line. Montgomery stepped out of bounds and dove on top of the ball while his feet remained out of bounds.

NFL rules dictate that if the ball comes into contact with a player that is out of bounds, the ball is considered out of bounds as well. And since Montgomery kept his feet out of bounds, the ball was whistled dead.

The Lions were then penalized for kicking the ball out of bounds, and instead of starting on the 3-yard line, the Packers got the ball on the 40. Four players later, they’d score a touchdown.

Well Stanford is a Con School, figures they’d find a way to cheat “legally”

Blackball has too many dumb rules

Got that right. After they changed the rules, they’ve been trying for the past five years to figure out what a “catch” is.
