I have a friend here who does not know what the immaculate reception is. I wanted to show him a video, but I have had a hell of a time searching for one. Can anybody help?
 
yeah i would like to see it again, havent seen it in a long time
 
Nublar might have it. The main argument back then was that an offensive player could not touch or tip the ball to another offensive player ...Frenchie Fuqua, the Steelers receiver got hit by Jack Tatum of the Raiders just as the ball arrived. If the pass hit Frenchie first then there would be no way that Franco Harris could have caught the ball and scored because of the way the rules were set up. Every time I have seen it though, it looks like Tatum hits the ball and Frenchie at the same time and then Franco runs up and makes the incredible catch and then stayed in bounds to score. I can watch that replay over and over.......hopefully someone has a clip of it. This kind of makes up for when the Raiders and Stabler screwed us out of going to the Superbowl in the 1974 AFC Championship Game, with a last second lob pass by Stabler to the end zone. :cry:
I still remember that loss.
