The Wrong Ball Football Play

Is this football play even legal? Seems to me it constitutes unsportsmanshiplike conduct even if it is legal. Watch the video!

yes it is legal..i saw this on real tv like 3 years ago..what is happening is the players get set and the qb yells "coach, wrong ball"!..The center sidesnaps the ball to the qb and he acts like he is going over to the coach to get a ball, and takes off.

NO, THIS PLAY IS NOT LEGAL!!!!!! It would have been legal is the player would not have said anything to the coach or the sidelines. Once he did that, the play became illegal. The sidesnap is completely legal but you can not use anyone on the sidelines to decieve the defense. The play is illegal.
