On Football and Chess

You're probably asking yourself what does football have in common with chess? Well, at this point nothing. But! I, Zephyrbird, have decided that it would be better for the football players and the game to use a chess move. It came to mind yesterday when my Tampa Bay Bucs were slaughtering the Carolina Panthers. Go Bucs!! In the last quarter it was 27 - 3 with only a few minutes to go. This meant the Panthers would have to score three touch downs and three two point conversions in those few minutes to just tie the game. It just wasn't going to happen.

So here comes the chess move. In chess when you look at the board and you realize there is no way to win you lay your king down and resign. So, my thought is, when a team is in the position the Panthers were in yesterday why not just go lay their quarterback down in the field and resign the game? That makes sense to me! ZephyrBird speaks!
