Crazy flag at Washington high school game

At a high school playoff game a kid scores a TD and like every TD he scored during the year he points to Heaven and then gives the ball to the ref. This time he gets a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct. The reasoning he was calling attention to himself (actually no...thanking God), and then the officials governing body said it was to prevent a delay in the game (are you kidding me...the kid gave the ball right to the official). Just crazy. You watch and see what you think.

Is God not a fan of the other team?

Really funny call and a worse explanation.
The article, if you read it, goes on to discuss how the refs were told that their use of pink whistles to support breast cancer would result in a fine.

Latte drinking, volvo driving, Pelosi loving, SEC hating, Starbucks worshipping, liberal affronts to good barbeque eating Americans.

I can still smell their stench from my last trip to San Francisco...I might still have it on me.

What a God forsaken city that is.
But don't worry, your tax dollars will bail them out after Gov. Moonbeam finishes the state off with a fresh round of social spending.

Who says he was thanking God for scoring a touchdown? Maybe he was thanking God that his mother no longer has cancer or that his dad has found a job after being unemployed for 6 months. You have no idea what he was thanking God for. Maybe he was thanking God that he didn't live in Michigan.

Washington is some distance from California.

The vagueness of the reason behind the flag reeks of the NCAA.
