This is inspired by the "stealing plays" thread:
Conference rules dictate that you have to exchange the previous 2 games with your next opponent. After exchanging the tape, you realize that the other coach has left additional games from the same season on the end of the tape by accident.
What do you do and why?

Call him and tell him. I would guess the coach would say, "hey no problem". Then hang up and tell his staff, "hey they have an extra game film.....doesn't matter....we'll kill them anyway".

tell him if you talk to him again before game time, I realy dont think watching three instead of two games will make much of a difference though

We had about 6 different schools we traded film with, that weren't in our league, yet we all have common opponents . So most of the time , we already had film on our next opponents long before our trade with them. And the other schools did the same. So no real secrets in our league. LOL.

I'd watch and not say anything, not because I'm not trying to get away with anything, I just don't think it is that big of a deal............

If you are dumb enough to send me some extra games, then I'm just dumb enough to watch them. Our district trades a minimum of the previous two weeks. However, if a coach asks for three, then we trade three. I have even heard of some coaches that are friends copying games and "helping" a friend out in the play-offs. Now that in my opinion is a whole other ball games and is completely wrong. (Unless its me they are helping . . . just kidding)

I personally wouldn't watch them... It's obviously a trick by the other coaching staff to throw off our real scouting... Probably didn't really even play those games... nothing but blue screen and special effects. I wouldn't watch them... but I would add some music and make some youtube videos.  |

Its happened before and we have watched the extra games. This falls into the same category as yelling the plays too loud - Dumb Coaching. I didn't break into their office and make illegal copies and I didn't get 2 tapes from him and only send him 1 tape.
Here's two other examples - We play a team that uses a body clock to call plays. Our DC broke their code and we ended up "calling" several plays of theirs. We took advantage of their careless play calling. We also play a wrist coach team and last year one of their players lost one of the insert cards that had their "codes" on it. We gave it to the side judge and he gave it to one of their players to get it back to the coach. We could have kept it to use, but I didn't think about that for a second.

One of the things we did this year, is see if we knew anybody personally that played the team we were about to face to see if we could get MORE film on that opponent. Just because you have to trade two, doesnt mean you cant get more.
Heck in the state title game for the big schools two years ago, the team that upset the defending champs had EVERY single game the other team played that season, all 13 of them.
