That actually reminded me of one of the worst play-by-play calls I ever heard in hockey history. A player was bearing down on the opposing goalie on a breakaway, and he had several seconds to make his shot. But his split-second hesitation allowed a defender to catch up to him and knock the puck away at the last possible second. And with that, the announcer actually said: "Oh, my! He had all the time in the world and he took too long!" And of course, my immediate thought was: "If he had all the time in the world, how could he possibly take too long?" So, quite obviously, he didn't have all the time in the world! Time is both relative, and constant. Use it wisely!
