Excessive grieving?

**SportsChick91** · 09-09-2011, 02:33 AM

i was playing someone (note: who was playing ridiculously, going for it on 4th & 30, etc.) and right after half-time my screen froze then it said "your peer has been kicked for excessive grieving."

anybody know what the heck that means? i looked it up and got a variety of different answers. just wondering what it REALLY means. not just someone's "guess."

i was wondering the same thing myself yesterday..i was losing 14-13 late in the 4th and i threw an INT with about 30 seconds left. after he picked it off the game froze for a few seconds and then said he was kicked for excessive grieving..it was cool i got the win but i really did lose so it was pretty cheap..the only thing he was doing was consistently going for it on 4th down no matter where he was on the field

that's pretty much what happened to me. he ran constant no huddle (even going for it on 4th and 30+) and jumped off-sides at least 7 or 8 times.

I don't think No Huddle should count against someone. At least it has been a viable offense in the past in the NFL. It got Buffalo to 3 Super Bowls...not that it did them any good when they got there, but still.

It was probably the jumping offsides so much and possibly going for it on every 4th down. I doubt they'd kick someone out of a game for doing no huddle. I run no huddle a lot.

Happened in a game today. It was like the 4th or 5th play of the game though. The guy ran it each time and just got kicked on the last run... idk why.

Yeah, that's straight garbage right there.
