Badasss Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 How 'bout "Senseless in Seattle" or "Miraculous Deception?"
angryfan62 Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 (edited) While tonight's calls were bad, the regular refs make their fair share of bad calls. Just a few I can recall: - Music city forward lateral - The push out in the back of the EZ against the Jags in 2004- Plax mugging Leodis (I think it was) in the EZ and then pushing off to catch the game winner - Ed Houchuli's famous Denver fumble fiasco - Beebe landing on his head but not being down by contact and fumbling - Bert Emanuel catches the ball for what should be a first down late in the 2000 NFC Championship game between Tampa Bay and St. Louis but it's ruled that he doesn't have full control when the ground causes the fumble. Let's just not kid ourselves into thinking that getting the real refs back will mean the end of bad calls. Very well said sir. EDIT: And those were all Playoff and Championship games too. Other than "Music City" I can't recall the media and fans freaking out nearly as much over those as they are for this incident. Edited September 26, 2012 by angryfan62
