SEGMENT 1: THE WEIRD OFFSIDES

starts at 0:50

What was that? What’s the dumbest rule you’ve ever seen applied oh right we asked a Lions fan.

SEGMENT 2: SCORING FIRST IS RECOMMENDED

starts at 20:29

Scoring first is recommended, especially if you’re playing Ohio State and the officials are going to get fired if the penalties aren’t even by the end of the 3rd. Can they play their game against Notre Dame?

What’s the worst call you’ve ever seen? Well I’m a Lions fan. OH OF COURSE.

Thanks for the weekly rundown.  It's appreciated, and I enjoyed it.  One thing, however:

"I didn't hear anything about BTN+ this weekend, so it must have been okay." 

Where BTN+ is involved the starting assumption is that it is crap.  Always assume that it is crap.  It's only when positive things are mentioned that it is even possible to maybe conclude otherwise.  Chances are that it was crap anyway.

Haha, that's probably fair. I thought BTN+ was fine this weekend. I think there was maybe 30 seconds of no Al on the call, but that could have just as easily been a WTKA thing. The video worked fine the whole time for me, the audio worked fine 99% of the time, so I call that a win. Overall I'd probably give it a C- but I can watch pretty much every Michigan hockey game and I don't take that for granted even if it's a pretty garbage product for 2021.
