Believe me, I'd have rather seen this too. The question is, would they have tried to keep us away from you, or would they have gone over to harass 291?

1528's dilemma poses an interesting question. Before the finals began, we knew they were hobbled and were prepared to push them outside of the home zone if necessary. We decided it would be more interesting for 379 and 48 to take on your remaining scorers. If their ramps were folded when we pushed them outside of the home zone, I'd see no reason for penalty, but if they deployed them while we pushed them out, I wonder how this fits into the "you can't cause an opposing team to break a rule" area of the rules?
