J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!
Don't remind me who tore his ACL ((((((((((((((
Anyway, remember last monday night's Seahawks Packers game? If you look at the top comment at the time of this post, the user "macgt16" sums up the play to exactly how i was going to, but he saved me the work:
if u stop the decision in the air, jennings gets it. but it's about who has it once the plays dead. jennings has it closer to his body, but the ball dropped to his forearms. Tate's body positioning was no where near the ball, but he firmly had both hands on it. jennings did not. i'll put it this way: even a high school football player would've kept that ball out out Tate's hands if his hands where both truly on the ball once on the ground. jennings lost control once he hit the ground. period.
And a nice picture:
This call could not have possibly been overturned, and is actually correct. The Replay Officials that officiate each game from the booth have a separate CBA from the officials on field, so they are the ones with the final say if a play must be overturned or not.
So whats with all the ruckus? Business and labor unions. Thats all this is about. Its not about the Seahawks, or the Packers, or Golden Tate or anything. This whole dilemma is about the ref's labor union and lockout.
Those who say pass interference on Tate, those calls are NEVER called EVER! Even with real officials, you will never see a pass interference penalty on a desperation play because an un-timed down from the 1 yd line if its on the defense will make the entire league erupt.
