    I don't think you can decline a pre-snap penalty.

    You can decline any penalty

    We made them jump on purpose. When they lined up for the FG- we shifted real fast making the line think the ball had been snapped. Sp no- we were never going to decline it considering we made them jump on purpose. We wanted it to be 4th and long instead of hoping for a missed kick

    Lol, true...but I still knew they'd convert that 4th and long. In the moment, I wanted them to kick that long FG....but I didn't know they'd send their club-footed pigmy out there to croquet the shit out of the ball, lol. It all worked out.
