This just absolutely blows my mind and fires me up. I know the stands at Godley are above the field, which probably gave you the impression that you were above it all looking down upon the coaches, therefore worthy to judge. The fact that you don't even know what goes on on the field during those moments, or the conversations that are being had, and being able to judge a person's sportsmanship because he didn't turn around and yell to his team to take a knee and show respect?? There are endless factors when a player is injured. I've had multiple instances where the white hat knew a player was going to be okay and told my players to stay up so the game can continue once the player is off the field. To be that far away and attempt to judge someone just floors me. I'm sure you would handle every situation with grace and perfection if you were down there.
The sportsmanship you were looking for in that moment came with 2 minutes left in the game when Gordon got the ball back with one of the most explosive offenses in the history of six-man football and a 28 game mercy rule streak in the balance, and chose to spare Abbott instead of putting a metaphorical bullet in their head, which anyone on this site knows they could have done with one single play and continue their history breaking path. There's your sportsmanship you were looking for.
