Hey circ you gave it a good fight.
game over
And yet the Steelers still won and noo ne talks about the calls blown in favor of the Seahawks they only whine about the calls that went against. As posted several years ago bad calls were made in both directions.
Read all the posts before posting and you might just sound like you know what you are talking about. After several years you have had time
WOW talk about denial
I give you a link to an AP story that tells you the head official in super bowl XL now admits to blowing two calls that affected the game with quotes like:
"It left me with a lot of sleepless nights, and I think about it constantly,"and your response is reread all the posts"I'll go to my grave wishing that I'd been better."
You can give up the bad calls on both sides argument everyone (outside of Pittsburgh perhaps) knows the key momentum (and ultimately game changing) calls went against the Seahawks![]()
Wow, I had forgotten all about this thread and the personal feud between VXR & CIRCMAND (I had to re-read the entire thread again to get the total picture and flavor). The winning nod has to go to VXR as proven by the documented "link" attached in his posting #66 (that pretty much says it all - end of story). Thank you VXR for your dedication and for carrying the P.N.W. Torch in your olympic battle with CIRCMAND.
Perhaps the NFL as a professional organization can learn from this bad experience from SB-40 and be better in the future overall. Aside from F-1 & NASCAR, watching the NFL will always remain one of my most favorite sports. Baseball & Basketball are just too slow paced for my blood.![]()
thanks for your opinion. As a super vxer you do get a partial vote. However if you want further arguements here it goes
1. this SB was held in 2006. If it bothered the ref so bad why didnt he say something over the last 5 years?
2, If he felt he screwed up so bad why didnt he quit since he evidently sucked so bad
3. Without that call maybe they score a TD they still lose 21-17.
4. The holding every play by the Hawks offensive line was better documented than this bad call how may that have affected the Steeler defense which is who won the game.
5. The AP story says the ref said he blew it after 5 years the AP story did not say if that was a fact just that the ref said it.
6. I wonder why exactly the ref waits so long to admit he blew it. Maybe the Seahawks paid him money to lie about it? Hell after 5 years of having people berate him about it maybe he was brainwashed to think it actually was a bad call.
Wow dude...you're so "over it" that I'm starting to feel sorry for you...![]()
