the craziest thing that has happened when I was playing was on the last play of the game...time had totally run out, and I had placed the ball marker for the pass in the endzone in a spot that I thought would be good for my receiver, then I noticed that there was a defender who was slightly closer and on a speedier base than my receiver. My thought was "dang this is going to be an interception for sure!" The team had a huge drive to get to the endzone with time running out and my stupid pass placement would lose them the game.
what happened next was amazing! My receiver was sitting pretty close to the motor and when the board kicked on the receiver TOOK FLIGHT!

he dove for the ball marker like his little plastic life depended on it! His hands touched the ball marker JUST before the defender got there.
I was in shock!
My team won... but I felt like i didn't have much to do with it because they made the extra effort to make up for my inept pass placement.
