Incorrect Scoring

Back to the Arnaz Battle fumble. I assume that the point given back to Battle would be debited against the Special Teams?

Elias made the change today and xpert sports made that change as well changing the outcome again giving the win back to the guy who had first won. Went from a win by 1.65 to a loss by .05 to a win by .15! What a way to lose 6K, I mean win it oh wait lose it!!! They changed the yardage total on Thursday? Wow.

Elias makes yardage changes all the time and stat services can't keep changing their scores during the week or there would never be any finality. Changing a TD ruling or giving a reception to the correct player are obvious corrections that need to be made as soon as it's official.

From what I understand, WCOFF has no "expiration date" for mid-week stat changes. The stakes were very high in this particular week, as it was a League Championship game that awarded $6,000 to the winner (the loser got $1,800) AND a spot in the playoffs to win $200,000. Huge ramifications.

I hope we never have a problem like this, but a stipulation in the rules is an absolute must.

[/QUOTE]It might have something to do with the fact that the rules state scoring discrepencies can be brought up until Friday following the week's games.

The "TS Rule" accomplishes the "CYA Rule". Nicely done.
