SQUIRREL !!!!!

Sorry, I guess that this was my fault. Didn't mean to steer it off kilter, but I think that we are all better people now that we have had this discussion. Not sure that there is any real consensus on this other than Billy's Mom is not much of a statistician.

 

No blame needed... we do just fine at taking detours on our own. I will agree that we are all better for it, I feel much better about this discussion than the one we had with Mr. N_t M_g last Friday.

 

Now who said something about a squirrel???

Yes, but I think the situations like that are pretty rare. What you get more of in high school soccer is something like:

 

Billy boots the ball down the field from his defensive spot..........at some point in the near future after the ball has bounced around a bit, Johnny scores a goal. Billy's mom, who is keeping the all-important stats for the team, records an assist for Billy. Upon returning home, she immediately logs onto bluegrasspreps.com and tells everyone that Billy had yet another assist.

 

Assist question... in the CCH-Trinity game, Trinity scores off of CCH own goal on a throw-in... does the player throwing the ball in get an assist?

According to FIFA rules, a player can be credited with an assist of an own goal. I suggest you ask Billy's mom for clarification.

Billy's mom videotaped it. She's sending it to recruiters.
