One thing for sure. I'm glad I didn't have to make some of those calls. Those goal line calls are really tough when it's close like that, but if any, and I mean any part of the ball, even 1/8 of an inch penetrates the imaginary vertical line over the goal line, it's a T.D. And I have made those calls before, and once you make it, you have to sell it (which the linesman did not do, and that looked bad). No matter which way you go, you are going to make one team mad. But that's the way it goes. Don't forget that Pittsburgh still had another down to score on from the 4 inch line. But again, who knows, coulda fumbled. All in all, the officials had a terrible day. The AHSAA football championship games, played in December at Legion Field, had better officiating than the Super Bowl.

I hate the football 'penetration' rule. I think the ball carrier should have his body and the football over the goal line.
Do you know the origin of the word TOUCHDOWN? In the early days of football the runner had to literally touch the ball down on the ground in the end zone. So, technically, most Touchdowns aren't really Touchdowns.
A true, true story

Then they need to change it from "Touchdown" to a "Getitover".

Can't we all just get along?

I'd rather we switch to pocket pool. You talk about EXPERTISE --- now THERE, I GOTTIT!

Why not change it to fornication? That would open up a new can of worms(no pun) MVB ES

Well, I would bring up the episode in the canopy bed, but that would open up a whole new can-o-py's...

I could tell about the time I fed a case of Ex-Lax to a tribe of Pigmy Natives in Borneo but that would open up a Cannibals...

Well, I WON'T bring up Lathan's smoking habits, as that would open a whole new can na ********* should that be "-bis."

Right word Ivy, but the syllables in the wrong order...Shoud read "Gitoverit".

I think Ivy got it right the first time. We were discussing the ball-in-the-end-zone-thing..

Swami Fogey is never wrong! Bet my hat on it. MVB ES
