To be more specific....during an extra point attempt, is it legal for a defender in the linebacker position to "leap" over the center to block the kick?
Thanks
I am assuming that some are whining that a flag should have been thrown to keep Brownwood from winning the game. The picture below shows Longoria did not leap over anybody. He crashed thru the Graham defenders to block the kick. It was simply a great effort by a kid who was determined to do his job to make sure his team won. I am sure I would be saying the same thing if I was on the other side of the argument but .... Lions Win!

For the record, I obviously had no "Dawg" in the fight (haha), and I have already congratulated the Lions more than once for an outstanding game and victory. :cheerl: I am truly just trying to understand the rule and where the arguement might come from.
