What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYahoo Sports says Bayern came back from two goals down against Viking Stavanger, and Michael Olise was sent off for throwing the ball.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo, panel: is throwing the ball away ever okay when you're annoyed?

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorYes, a thousand times yes! The man had a feeling, the ball was right there, and he gave it a little toss.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI threw a casserole dish into a lake once, and I'd do it again.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA casserole dish.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentI'm with Chip, which I hate. The ball sat there for ninety minutes being kicked by everyone, and nobody asked how it felt.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentI once threw a router out a window because it blinked at me.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe rule says no. You're allowed to hate the ball, but you're not allowed to hand it to someone else in anger.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat's a red card, and I will die on that touchline.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorHank, a team came back from two down, Harry Kane scored, and the story is a toss? Where's your joy?

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentBuried with the beans.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFine, then I'll change my vote.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIf I'm the only one in this building who has never been ejected from anything, I want to see the card go to somebody else.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorChat, vote now: was the throw a crime or a cry for help? Hands up on the couch.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentTwo hands for the throw, one hand for the rule. The ball? Totally abstaining. We're getting nowhere.
