Man, that ref must have been paid well.
|
|
Sure it was, the call was reviewed, the call stands, then it is a touch down, deal with it.
|
|
How? Oh let me guess, you are a Seattle fan..... It is only a game, not life or death. |
|
|
Uhh.,..NO. He is clearly a 10mm Fan. |
||
|
Yes, it is. It's fixed to favor the favorites, which explains why the favorites have been upset in about half the Superbowls ever played. |
|
|
IT'S MORE THAN THAT DAMMIT! THIS IS MY LIFE AT STAKE! |
||
|
nothing more than highly talented bipedal golden retrievers chasing a ball |
||
|
yes it was.
+infiinty bout time steelers get a shitty call that actually goes their way. |
|
I hate both teams... and that was not a touchdown... not even close. And the offensive pass interference call was at best questionable. I wouldn't have called it.
Go Patriots! |
|
Multi-billions bet....leave the outcome to chance? No way. Every crucial call goes against Seattle. And no I'm not a Seattle fan.
|
|
That ref simply was out of his mind. That was not a touchdown. Also - the Seahawks were robbed of a touchdown. Two bad calls. (and I really could care less who wins) |
|
|
if the rules are the ball was suppost to be over the line. it wasn't a touchdown
|
|
Any part of the ball is supposed to break the plane of the touchdown line. I personally did not think this happened. However, the rules state the Ref reviewing the play must see CLEAR evidence to the contrary of the call on the field. If not, he must side with the original call..... That being said....GO SEAHAWKS! |

Agreed. Not a touchdown. Seattle's WAS a touchdown, though. That was no offensive pass interference.
|
|
Are 7 points on the board for the Steelers?
I believe that's the FINAL answer then. |
|
I assume we were watching the same video that the ref was... if so, it was clear from the positioning of the ball in the receiver's arms and chest that it never crossed the end zone until well after his knees were down and the player thrust it forward.
|
|
Final answer? Hell no Regis that ain't my final answer!!! Was it final when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!!!
|
|
For clarification of the rule, all the ball has to do is to "break" the front line of the wide white stripe. Where it goes from green to white. It does NOT have to go all the way over into the actual area known as the endzone.
|
|
I could care less who wins but Seattle had 2 bad calls against them. 1. That was NOT a push off unless PI was called also, and that was NOT a touchdown because the ball did not hit or go over the line. Even the player tried to cover it by tipping it over after down. BS call.
|
|
And it never did. It was tucked under Bens arm and went back under his body before it had a chance to break the plane. That's ok, might as well call the tuck rule ALA the Raiders.... |
|
|
It broke the plane when he was about a foot and a half off the ground. Seattle got screwed on the push off call, though. |
||
|
At least two people disagree with you, and they are the two people who matter. The linesmen, and the ref. 7 points on the board. |
||
|
Exactly! On both counts... The new pass interference rules suck. I like the old rules on that matter better. |
|
|
So typical. Just like Pittsburgh in the Terrible Towel years.
They win by cheating. Check Renfro's slide across the end zone line in the AFC playoffs which would have put the Oilers in a tie. They cheat, that's how they win. The touchdown called back on a bullshit offensive PI call. Then they give Rothlisfucker the call ..ball was clearly not in the end zone. I hate zebras that bet Pittsburgh Fuck Pittsburgh |
|
seattle was robbed of a TD and Pitt was handed a freebie.
They're going to take my thumbs!!!!!!!! |
|
BTW, Madden, who is never shy about saying it was or wasn't a bad call, never said it wasn't a TD.
He said it's too tough to call from the replay... Madden has been in pro football for 40yrs{?}? I'd bet he knows better than you or I do. If he says it's too tough to call, I'd believe him. |
|
|
|
|
Madden is also a senile bastard who's screwed up more than a few calls already this game. |
|
|
All the ball has to do is share space with the front blade of grass that has white on it. It did while he was still in the air. |
|
|
Al Michaels agreed. Then the halftime guys all basically said it was too close to call, huh.... Hmm... Maybe the guy who was standing 2.5' from the ball had a better look.... Maybe... Nah, the internet guys with TV had the better angle. |
||
|
Oh, shut up you idiot.................. It was in by 2-3 inches, not a blade of grass |
||
|
That was no TD. The ref on the field made a mistake but the replay booth has no excuse and should be fired.
|
|
Officials can be wrong. Don't even try to convince anyone that their decisions are infallible. Besides, you're so adament that he made it across, and you're still an "internet guy with tv". |
|||
|
Why don't we wait to see what the point spread is at the end of the game.
|
|
Its BUSHES FAULT.... He has a Halinburton Cheating Touchdown machine..... |

pwned by Robo! |
