We have to accept the questionable calls in XL, that is our cross not yours, and yet the NFL issued apologies, didn't fine Holmgren for publicly critisising the officials, and received an apology from the Ref who blew multiple calls ( by the way, multiple calls WERE indeed backed by the rules and NOT judgement calls). Anyway you want to slice it, possession CANNOT be gained without touching down inbounds with two body parts ( something Jennings did NOT do prior to Tate getting his hands on the ball) control is defined by touching down AND control OR simulteinious possession of the ball (meaning one, two hands, or an arm and one hand or ANY other form of "control" of the ball, meaning when both players hit the ground, not BEFORE as you stupidly continue to assert, and TATE NOT Jennings hand TWO Hands on the Football as opposed to Jennings with ONE as he fruitlessly attempts to peal Tates TWO hands off the football) AND it does NOT matter if a defenders body is between the receiver and the football, as possession is "control" not WHERE the body of a defender is, IN THE CASE OF SIMULTANEOUS POSSESSION, THE TIE GOES TO THE OFFENSIVE PLAYER. Always has, and always will, just because you aren't bright enough to read and interpret the rules correctly, doesn't change a damn thing, and it does NOT matter if 99.9% of all people view it the same way, those ARE the rules, and they HAVEN'T changed in the least, IF a regular ref called it differently, the ref would be actually making the WRONG call .
It frightens me a bit, how casually a law person blatantly uses 'MASS perception" as justification about why something is correct even IF the "law" ( or rules in this case that have been on the books for DECADES) says in black and white, what is right ( a catch) and wrong ( interception), learn the rules of the game, and get back to us, until then, let the grown ups talk.
LOL....I can honestly say sometimes I don't get why people feed Future because its what he probably wants, but seriously between HCR and Kalibane, I can see why you guys just keep on drilling him. It's not even remotely fair, it's just beatdown after beatdown to a guy who has crumbled down to troll status, a guy who never expected what happened between December 2012 - February 2014 to actually happen, a guy who fully expected his team to win the big one before the Hawks, and a guy who had spiraled downward because he had no idea how to deal with it, especially on a Seahawks forum.
Anyone remember
Palmetto Warrior??...now that was a guy from another team who had the full respect of everyone here. And he didn't suck up to us either. He spoke honestly, but realized where he was, and thus, had the common sense to debate in a really respectful and honest way, but had the nards to do it firmly and stand up for what he thought.
Wish we had a guy like him back in here.
