Bingo Game #58: Big Game #58 Bingo

Meaning you can fair catch a punt and then kick it back to the other team?

Not quite. So you fair catch a punt. Then instead of coming out on offense you come out and line up for a free kick, if the kick goes through the uprights you get 3 points.

Weird. So the punter would really have to boner a kick to make that one work.

OR... late in the game you pinned the defense back. They punt, so you fair catch the ball at the 50 yard line. Come out line up for free kick and win the game!

Ok, I have 2 legit questions @heysi :

1) “Announcers mispronounce Nevada”
What pronunciation is correct? Help a New Yorker out here.

2) “Athlete “acts””
Do you mean during a play, like is barely touched but falls down dramatically a la soccer? Or like actor in a show/advertisement?

1. Its Ne-Va-Da.....not Ne-VAH-DUH. We're a simple western state....not some hoity-toity New England state.

2. This would be in the commercials. If an athlete is trying to act....think the Manning brothers.....it counts. I'm not including floppers as acting.

Gotcha, thanks

Maybe it’s where I’m from, but my brain would say both of those the same way.

According to the New York Times:
“Is there a right way to pronounce a state's name? You say Ne-VAH-duh, I say Ne-VAD-uh. According to Nevadans, the latter is correct and the distinction is important.”

Is the NYT correct here?

 

[Spider]

Based on the calls on my card, there's a very slim chance I win during the game. One event going the wrong way makes it impossible,.


This is the most UNFAIR bingo EVER!!!!

 

[EMG06]

This is the most UNFAIR bingo EVER!!!!

Yeah I have “first play is a run” and “first play is a catch” both on my card. Thank goodness they are in spots that don’t count otherwise I would be guaranteed of 1) not winning
2) lots of whining

 

[NurseDave]

I have "Chiefs call first timeout". I'm assuming it's when they call their first timeout and not THE very first timeout.

 

[Jaro1069]

Yeah but what about like a coin toss is incorrect !!! I mean if it doesn't happen at the very beginning of the game and it's in a have to have square you're toast !! So game over in the first couple of seconds and No way to fix it because there's no way that any card will not have already finished before the end of the game for our caller to pick random words !!

See my post above. You would then proverbially be hosed.

I guess that call could be interpreted as rhe team calling the coin says heads and it lands on tails and not mean that they screwed up the coin toss.... I guess our Bingo wizard will need to weigh in on that one...

That's what I would assume. So you have a 50/50 shot at getting that square. And if the coin lands on its edge, you automatically win.

 

[Spider]

I have “coin toss is tails”, so if it’s heads, it’s game over!

And just how big is Gigantic?

Oh come on.......Its clearly that the Chiefs are the FIRST TEAM to call a time out.

Don't make me stop this car.

 

[heysi]

The good thing is.......No matter how much complaining anyone does, ultimately, this is Eric's fault. So I'm not even a little mad.

It clearly does not state that.



Jeesh, I feel like I'm channeling KJ.

Technically each team gets two "first" timeouts.

 

[NurseDave]

Technically each team gets two "first" timeouts.

Boom! An official call by an official.

 

[Jaro1069]

Well at least one of my calls is guaranteed to happen, it says Taylor Swift shown on TV !! I mean we Know that will happen !! HAHA....
