1. How far above the head or below it? A foot? Six inches? Do we stop play and have the ref take out a levellor to determine? Trick plays are part of the game. Taking advantage of complacency and stupidity are part of the game. But, the consequences of creaming a helpless punt receiver because you didn't know if he raised his hand high enough are too severe. I can do without that particular trick play and imagine the kid who is not made a paraplegic from being hit giving a fair catch signal can as well.

  2. Yeah, it was a novel moment, but cheesy, and will set up serious injuries in the future. That’s not whining.
