Here is the situation...
1) Team C is at home and leading Team S by 24 points in the 4th quarter
2) Team C has the ball with 8:04 remaining in the game
3) Team C's starting quarterback remains in the game
4) Team C marches down the field until there is 6:15 remaining
5) Team C's starting quarterback completes 2 passes but can't get a 1st down
Is this poor sportsmanship on the part of Team C? I don't think so...and neither did anyone in the media that I can remember.
Soooooo...
Whatever. By the way, take a wild guess who Team C is?

- It is poor sportsmanship to keep playing with your starters with a 21 point lead with 10:22 remaining in the game on the road.
- It is just fine to keep playing with your starters with a 24 point lead with 8:04 remaining in the game at home.
