Trying to figure out something:

  • Make it / take it
  • Score and ball back (Belgian style)
  • Winners out (vs loser’s out)

I always called it winners out but there was that other thing where apparently Jersey was weird. Was it automatic QB?

Nope, it was imaginary runners. The rest of you had a bunch of ghosts running the base paths…

Winners in/losers out is for “next up” – “make it/take it” is how you get your ass handed to you in a game of 21 when you’re 14.

Huh, winners out meant the same as make it / take it.

We would say winner stays on, or something like that, for your thing,

The best thing about lacrosse is the Faceoff… best restart after a score of any sport.

Ha - actually Lacrosse stinks because of that one aspect

You’ll have to expand on that because i like the ability to keep momentum by battling to keep the ball. It isnt make it take it, it isnt a change in possession, you have to tactically have the ability to take the ball back on the restart. People can have other opinions you know.

Facts

I’ve also seen it be the ruin of many rugby teams. It’s make it take it when you score in 15’s. Imagine the momentum you can build when you get the kickoff every time you score.

The “Out” was often implied. So, it was just “Winners” for make-it-take-it.

“Winners Stay” for running games.

Get a face off specialist and have his one skill dominate the game … don’t have a great one and get dominated.

Isn’t that the point in getting dominant specialists in all sports? We’ll have to disagree again.

First time I’ve ever addressed Tu directly, but somebody needs to say it: post the prompt, not the output
