yes, yes they did

They just said on PTI that the NFL admitted Polamalu did intercept the ball and it was mistakenly called an incomplete pass.

GoDucksCLSPride

ouch.

03SSMTL-S

they really need to use instant replay more often, to fix calls the refs blow, this weekend was horrible.

GoDucksCLSPride

Wonder if this officiating will cause some off-season changes.

Doom878

A lot of undermining ref's calls on Mondays have gone on this year huh?

West6MT

Ya, they really blew it on the polamalu thing. Were the Steelers out of timeouts to challenge?

mantis23

it was initially ruled and interception, indy protested and won the reversal (making it incomplete), not the other way around.

GoDucksCLSPride

Thats whats so nuts about it. It was ruled correctly but under close inspection from a challenge, it was rulled incorrect. WTF

Jonesi

And then the overturn was overturned by the NFL today..

Jonesi

I think the answer is what the NHL does..

Every gamenight the NHL, I guess, would be Head Officials in Toronto.. When they review a goal or play they get in touch with Toronto and make a executive decision.

It's not like NFL reviews are quick. Why can't the league be available for reviews on what a max 3 days a week..

West6MT

OH ok,........WTF??? I was out of the room when that happened and caught the tail end of it. That is HECTIC.

West6MT

Ya the NHL has a pretty good system in place for review of goals etc. Its not perfect, but it seems to work well. I didnt know about getting in touch with the head officials though.

Jonesi

Yea they take a few extra minutes but it's well worth it to not hear the next day "The Officials made a mistake on a review last night"

seattle dale

It looks more like he's taking a dump, than smilin!

seattle dale

Sorry noticed you were from LA most people root for the team in their town. And so far as the uniform is concerned. I thought only women worried about colors & whatnot on uniforms, My Mistake?

Amoeba

Denver or Pittsburgh, I think Denver by 4-7.

gocubsgo55

what is it about Seattle that makes them hate LA so much? I myself cant stand LA, I'll say that. But is there a Northwest vs. Southwest rivalry thing? Just a curious Midwest native askin'..

West6MT

Yep, thanks for explaining that to me everyone. Thats what I get for missing that part of the game.

Scottman111

I was agreeing with you

The reason I used the smilie is because everyone I know that watched the games said the officiating was fine, so I was in the minority in saying it wasn't fine. And I figured there would be some people on here that thought the same. (all though I was wrong)

Jonesi

Why you trying to confuse me....

You had me so lost..

Jonesi

Yumcha

BTW, in my rant of the Bears' loss, I forgot to mention how awesome the IND/PIT game was...I think it was one of the best games I've ever seen.

Back and forth...!





And for some, it may have been just too much back and forth...

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200....ap/index.html <--- some poor chap gets a heartattack when The Bus fumbled...

Jonesi

The stress level and intensity when rooting was intense.. It was absolutley insane.. I couldn't take it.. I've never screamed at the TV so much..

I would've loved to watch it not as a strong supporter of the Steelers..

Yumcha

I could imagine...!





And I could've imagined if Big Ben did not make that desperation tackle that prevented a possible TD...Wow.

And THEN, I could've imagined what would've happened to the ref for his idiot call on Polamalu's interception...

gocubsgo55

that game was an instant classic.

i am very grateful for it, because ESPN has been giving 95% of its playoff coverage to that one game. That means I don't have to see what we Bears fans saw on Sunday.

Mike 350Z

I probably would have cried and been grumpy all week haha (well maybe not cry like I did when I was 11 and they lost to the Chargers in the AFC championship in '94 i think, but I would have been upset to get so close and still blow it).

Then I would have been pissed too since the refs played a huge part.

No hatred here. The Dude was just trashing my hawks because he did not like our uniforms. Real good reason huh! Sounds like something my wife might say!

cmark

bashing team uniforms cuz they have nothing else on us is pretty whack


GO SEAHAWKS!!!

Right on Bro!! Was starting to feel like a loner. Go Hawks. I wonder what elementary school this guy who made 3 consecutive posts is from.

seattle dale

Are you telling us that some of the Carolina players are Fudge Packers?

seattle dale

Hey Jonsi, aren't you a Pittsburg Fan, why are you agreeing. Just curious.

Jonesi

Rather be the underdog..

Plus how can I argue with that guy..

seattle dale

I hear Ya Mang. Know what your sayin.
