So much for 'full time ref's' making a difference. (unless you're a big market team)
It seldom gets called but the Dolphins annually take that non-call for granted. We violate the rule from the first preseason game forth. I'm often amazed our tackles don't get called for it.
In watching that game last night I was annoyed at the frequency of penalties but not once did I think the Dolphins were getting much the worst of it. Likewise on the national forums where the game was being discussed, it was not a topic unless Dolphin fans initiated.
Yeah and that was the crazy thing. The "do over" part. Francis recovered and he and the rest of the D went to the corner of the EZ and were celebrating playing Hackey Sack w the ball. It wasn't that the refs didn't see who recovered - that was just the excuse - it's that they blew the whistle upon signaling TD and then all stopped paying attention. Inexcusable.Why is everyone screwing up that Pittsburgh call. I don’t let calls affect me, it’s too Pats fan like, but that one sticks out. It was Alama Francis who recovered it, and was the only one who could have possibly done it and came out of the pile with the ball, and it wasn’t a TD it was a do over from the 1.
Dont forget about the juwuan james illegal formation call that never ever ever gets called.
I think you’re talking about Tim Donaghy
Yep. I think he did the infamous Kings/Lakers game 6 playoff game in 2002 or at least Knew it was rigged.Wasn’t he also betting on games he was reffing?
