but after the penalty moved them back to the seven I was yelling at Campbell to kick the damn ball. Guess he didn't hear me. Then when they moved it up to the four I was hoping he would calm down and see the situation rationally, but nope. I mean, at that point you have to see that the universe is trying to tell you that it isn't going to happen and you take the extra point and roll the dice in OT.
