awhiteguy: The Worst Call Ever

awhiteguy 10.24.10	Goddammit....
Hawks 10.24.10	Doesn't matter. That happens all the time when a bunch of dudes jump on top of it. Yeah they definitely had it at first, but you never know what goes on at the bottom of those piles.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	You're correct hawks, but when there's another player from the opposing team jumping on the person's back who originally had the ball(which, once again, was clear on the replay that the Fins player originally recoverd it), that person is down by contact. Therefore, the player who originally recovered it(a Fins DE) should have been down by contact the second he touched and cradled in the ball.
Hawks 10.24.10	Yeah you're right on that one too. I don't know it really could go either way. That play pissed me off anyways because Roethlisberger needs to hold on to the god damn ball. He fumbled 3 times trying to do too much.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	But that's what you get with Roethlisberger. It's either feast or famine with him.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Any European Football comments will be automatically deleted. Thank you!
Hawks 10.24.10	Yeah that's true. I love Ben and he's one of the best in the league, I just wish he wouldn't be so careless sometimes.
Athom 10.24.10	i'm a steelers fan. im fine with it.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Just remember, you've won 2 rings with him being careless.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	I'm not going by "fan-dom," redsky, I'm going by what I saw on the replay. Of course you're all right with it! The call went your way! Lol
Hawks 10.24.10	Yeah I know. He has to do what he has to do I guess and it usually works so I'm good haha.
puma35 10.24.10	I broke things to that call, blasphemy
awhiteguy 10.24.10	I was in a bar in Houston, and I was the only one watching that game. I don't think I'll be allowed back inside next time.
puma35 10.24.10	Haha I am a diehard fins fan, and I approve
awhiteguy 10.24.10	So am I. I grew up in Miami. I've never been so angry at a football game than I was today. Wait, I said that two weeks ago at the UM game.....
Hawks 10.24.10	I also like the Dolphins, just not when they're playing the Steelers lol. I hope to god they win their division though. Fuck the Patriots.
FromDaHood 10.24.10	You're forgetting about the Calvin Johnson touchdown that the refs took away because he put the ball on the ground to celebrate because of some shitty "process" rule
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"You're forgetting about the Calvin Johnson touchdown that the refs took away because he put the ball on the ground to celebrate because of some shitty "process" rule" But as stupid as that rule is, the refs got it right. You have to get up with the ball in your hands in that situation, and C.J. didn't. I agree that the rule is stupid as hell, though.
Obfuscation24 10.24.10	Falcons won today and UGA won yesterday so I'm content
Keasbey 10.24.10	"Falcons won today and UGA won yesterday so I'm content" this.
JWT155 10.24.10	Fuck the Patriots [2]
awhiteguy 10.24.10	No need to get excited about UGA. They're not going anywhere. and yeah.... Fuck the Patriots [3] also.... FUCK THE J E T S SUCK SUCK SUCK!
JWT155 10.24.10	Anyone else watching the Pats Chargers game on CBS, the Chargers look atrocious.
ARuinedEmpire 10.24.10	At least you aren't going into the 2nd half with 4 turnovers. My voice will be gone from yelling at the tv all during this game.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	I think the Chargers are about done. Without Vincent Jackson and a not-so-healthy Antonio Gates, what weapons does Phillip Rivers really have?
SD(TheGreatDestroyer)Inc 10.24.10	Roethlisberger is such a liar
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"At least you aren't going into the 2nd half with 4 turnovers. My voice will be gone from yelling at the tv all during this game." Don't worry. I got asked to leave a bar in Houston today because I was cursing at the TV.
JWT155 10.24.10	Roethlisberger is such a liar [2] BUT HE WAS UNDER THE PILE HOLDING DA BALL! Haha I saw the interview and it was all bullshit, he was on his ass at the goal line nowhere near the ball.
ARuinedEmpire 10.24.10	We have Floyd, but he isn't all that good, but other than that we have no receivers.
Keasbey 10.24.10	honestly, i'm just happy that uga isn't continuing the losing trend for the time being. after losing 4 straight games at the beginning of the season i started appreciating wins more, haha. still haven't seen that dolphins/steelers play. i just saw the highlights but they didn't really show much. also... fuck the jets.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"BUT HE WAS UNDER THE PILE HOLDING DA BALL! Haha I saw the interview and it was all bullshit, he was on his ass at the goal line nowhere near the ball." Lol, he just doesn't know when to stop, does he?
SD(TheGreatDestroyer)Inc 10.24.10	so painful wathcing the chargers! At least the D know what they're doin
Jesuslaves 10.24.10	your profile pic brings the lulz
awhiteguy 10.24.10	I'm so glad it does.
Obfuscation24 10.24.10	"No need to get excited about UGA. They're not going anywhere." I thought they weren't going to win more than 2 games this year , yet now it looks like they're going to get at least 6 and go to a bowl game, so that's something to be happy about.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"I thought they weren't going to win more than 2 games this year , yet now it looks like they're going to get at least 6 and go to a bowl game, so that's something to be happy about." Since when is it okay to get excited about mediocrity?
Keasbey 10.24.10	hope the packers beat the stupid vikings later
awhiteguy 10.24.10	^Samesies
liketotallydude 10.24.10	Yeah I was hoping the Dolphins would beat the Squealers man.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Biggest bunch of horseshit....
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Trap game?
Keasbey 10.24.10	"Since when is it okay to get excited about mediocrity?" well there's still a slight chance that uga can win the sec east, so continuing to win helps. hell, it's not likely since we still have florida and auburn left, but after our start it's good to even be in that situation. also, since fans of the sec are so crazy/annoying, it's better to be a mediocre, smaller bowl earning team than the laughing stock of the sec, which is the direction it seemed to be going earlier.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	For one, with UGA, how can you say they aren't a laughing stock right now when you lost to Colorado? Plus, you guys were ranked 21st at the beginning of the year and now you can't even smell the rankings right now.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Plus, the four teams UGA has beaten have a combined record of 10-19. Nothing to get excited about.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	What? ARe you kidding me? College football is so much more exciting than the NFL. The NFL, for the most part, doesn't have the pageantry, the tradition, nor the passion that college football, it's players, and it's fans have. So come on, dude.
Obfuscation24 10.24.10	The NFL is cool to watch if it's your favorite team, otherwise it's boring as hell. When it comes to college football though I can turn on any game and be entertained.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Exactly.
JWT155 10.24.10	Like you watch sports Rosa...
Keasbey 10.24.10	eh, i'll give you that about colorado. that sucked so hard. i was only thinking about records and standing when i mentioned not being a laughing stock, though we didn't lose to a division II school like ole miss or suck as bad as tennessee. i'm by no means saying this has been a good season, i was just saying that i'm happy they turned it around instead of going further downhill is all.
Obfuscation24 10.24.10	^ what keasbey said
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"eh, i'll give you that about colorado. that sucked so hard. i was only thinking about records and standing when i mentioned not being a laughing stock, though we didn't lose to a division II school like ole miss or suck as bad as tennessee. i'm by no means saying this has been a good season, i was just saying that i'm happy they turned it around instead of going further downhill is all." One of my best friend's is a UGA grad, and every year, along with the rest of his family and all of his UGA grad friends, say that this is the year they're going to over-take Florida, and this year was no different. So forgive my UGA hate, but to be honest, beating those four teams isn't anything at all to get excited about, whether it means a bowl birth or not. Chambered- How is nothing about college football entertaining? Are you retarded?
Keasbey 10.24.10	i was never saying i'm excited, simply happy that it's better now then worse. i know the teams we beat aren't very good, but neither is colorado and we lost to them. it would be retarded to get excited because we will most likely lose again to florida and auburn.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Plus, with the current BCS system in college football, as screwed up as it may be, you gotta realize that every week is a playoff game, because those teams are fighting for their lives. They don't sub in players when they're 3 games up in the division with 2 games left. They can't do that. Therefore, college is much more exciting than a 16 game schedule where teams coast half the time in the NFL.
JWT155 10.24.10	It's been an off year for football in State College, not an off year in partying though.
Obfuscation24 10.24.10	^ Pit speaks the truth. If you fuck up one game in college football then your whole season could be over, so each one holds a lot more urgency than the NFL.
Keasbey 10.24.10	yeah, i'm about to graduate from uga myself, so forgive me for arguing as well. i just try to stay optimistic about it is all. however, if we somehow beat florida or auburn, i WILL be excited. anywho... college football>>NFL
awhiteguy 10.24.10	It's been a weird year for the U, as well, JWT. I was actually at that pathetic showing they gave against FSU. Bought a plane ticket, bought a ticket from a friend, and almost $1000 later, I ended up wishng I was dead.
JWT155 10.24.10	Yea, we've been on ESPN primetime twice to show how shitty we are, scored only 3 points in each contest.
Keasbey 10.24.10	i just saw that interview with big ben and the replay... there's no way that douche was anywhere near the ball in that pile, haha.
Keasbey 10.24.10	i just saw that interview with big ben and the replay... there's no way that douche was anywhere near the ball in that pile, haha.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Lol
Keasbey 10.24.10	i don't know why that was sent twice.
theacademy 10.24.10	this is all sorta irrelevant because they're in the AFC east, don't you think?
JWT155 10.24.10	He was holding the ball though!?!
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	Fucking lame I agree.
JWT155 10.24.10	The Pats just completely screwed up hahahahaha I love it. EDIT: Fuck it wasn't a fumble returned for a TD.
fr33convict 10.24.10	i saw the replay of this. probably the worst call i've seen in ages.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"this is all sorta irrelevant because they're in the AFC east, don't you think?" It still affects your overall record, Acad, which is the first thing that will get you into the playoffs, not divisional records. Good try, though. JWT- What do you mean?
JWT155 10.24.10	The Chargers almost had a fumble returned for a TD to take a 26-23 lead over the Pats. It's 23-20 right now.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Damn.....
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	I just gotta say LOL BRONCOS LOLOLOLOLOLOL BRONCOS LOL
JWT155 10.24.10	123 Balls, the Raiders are raping.
ShadowRemains 10.24.10	"Maybe the worst call and officiating I've seen all year." that is saying a lot right there...
theacademy 10.24.10	"It still affects your overall record, Acad, which is the first thing that will get you into the playoffs, not divisional records. Good try, though." na what i meant was that they're gonna have to play the jets again + i don't know if they can beat the the pats again... phins are tough bc they're pretty good but not contenders... also when you think about it the titans + ravens + steelers are too good to not see 2/3 of them in the playoffs
PayneTiger777 10.24.10	Yaaaay, Patriots got stuffed on fourth down. I agree that it was the worst call so far this year. The Steelers probably paid the officials to get that call.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"na what i meant was that they're gonna have to play the jets again + i don't know if they can beat the the pats again... phins are tough bc they're pretty good but not contenders... also when you think about it the titans + ravens + steelers are too good to not see 2/3 of them in the playoffs" Dude, the Titans aren't that good. They've played a soft schedule so far, and the AFC South is pretty weak this year. And yeah, I'm not rooting for the Dolphins to "win it all." I'm just rooting for them to make some noise this year, and they had their chance today, but the refs took it from them.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	"Maybe the worst call and officiating I've seen all year." that is saying a lot right there..." Not really. If you see the back endzone angle replay, you'll agree with me.
ShadowRemains 10.24.10	i meant that officiating in a ton of sports seems to be abnormally shitty this year...
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Well, I was specifically talking about football, Shadow, but yeah, it was really, really bad in baseball this year especially.
JWT155 10.24.10	Don't even start saying the Steelers are fucking paying officials, as a lifetime Steeler fan we've been fucked a lot more then having calls go in our favor.
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	Ben Rapistberger got lucky.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Nah, I never said that. I never would. I believe that certain teams get more of a benefit of the doubt(Steelers, Cowboys, Jets, etc), but that's not the Steeler's fault.
ShadowRemains 10.24.10	....
theacademy 10.24.10	honestly i just wish the government would stop focusing on stupid shit like the economy and fix baseball and football officiating gayness.
theacademy 10.24.10	also LOL'd so hard with you including the jets with the Steelers + Cowboys on that list
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Lol. Yeah, because professional sports are much more important than everyday life!
JWT155 10.24.10	Way to go Chargers fucking up again.
theacademy 10.24.10	"because professional sports are much more important than everyday life!" uh this one time matthew mcconaughey made like a billion dollars or whatever betting on the nfl
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Who's Matthew Mcconaughey?
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	"Who's Matthew Mcconaughey?" Are you so full of yourself that you don't know the world's sexiest man?
awhiteguy 10.24.10	You're forgetting about me, Balls.
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	Stop deleting posts bra.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	I'm deleting the retarded ones from people who don't have anything better to do than insult someone with a disease about their disease. Otherwise, have at it.
Dryden 10.24.10	better delete this comment then
Foxhound 10.24.10	hi dryden =)
JWT155 10.24.10	I'm the world's sexiest man Balls
Dryden 10.24.10	hey foxhound!!
awhiteguy 10.24.10	And yes, I know who Matthew Mcconaughey is. He makes really shitty movies(outside of Dazed and Confused and Two for the Money).
theacademy 10.24.10	i think Two for the Money might be the one that's based on Matthew Mcconaughey's crazy year he spent betting on the NFL
Maniac! 10.24.10	Hey nick
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	Heyyy alll. IM IN MIAMI BITCH.
Maniac! 10.24.10	Nobody cares

Maniac! 10.24.10	Nm Nick. just trying to relax after the roadtrip and funeral
BallsToTheWall 10.24.10	I'm not there but I love the saying and I love every time I go to the beach all the stands and stores sell that fucking shirt. Should have gone to strip club tonight....ehhh another time.
awhiteguy 10.24.10	Balls, did the Cheetah in Hallandale ever re-open? Brandon- Roadtrip? Funeral?
BallsToTheWall 10.25.10	Don't think so. However Scarletts is ace.
Maniac! 10.25.10	@Nick my last great gma passed. Had to go to Illinois for the wake/funeral. It was brutal
awhiteguy 10.25.10	I bet, dude. My condonlences. Balls- Yeah, I used to love Scarlett's, but I knew all of the bouncers that worked at Cheetah's.
Josh D. 10.25.10	You still in Houston?
awhiteguy 10.25.10	Yeah, supposed to leave Tuesday, but I'm trying to get out of here tomorrow.
Josh D. 10.25.10	I didn't realize I work about 15 minutes or so away from the Medical Center.
awhiteguy 10.25.10	Lol. I'll be there at 8 AM tomorrow morning.
Josh D. 10.25.10	I'll be working at 7:30, which means I have to wake up in 8 hours.
awhiteguy 10.25.10	Lol I'm right there with you.
Josh D. 10.25.10	Have you seen St. Joseph's Hospital in south downtown?
awhiteguy 10.25.10	I dunno, probably.
Josh D. 10.25.10	Oh. Well never mind.
Counterfeit 10.25.10	I see this is a thread about football. Just comin to say, the Vikings are gonna win. yeah.
Josh D. 10.25.10	I need Rodgers to die so I won't lose fantasy this week.
JWT155 10.25.10	Steelers already won, all other games are meaningless.
Counterfeit 10.25.10	The Bears lost today, the Packs gonna lose today. Vikes are never gonna lose again.
JWT155 10.25.10	Really
Josh D. 10.25.10	Go Gata.
Counterfeit 10.25.10	lol i wish we probs gonna go like 8-8
Josh D. 10.25.10	Favre just can't get a game winning drive in order this year.
awhiteguy 10.25.10	That's cuz he's over the hill. Plus, it's gotta be hard(no pun intended) when you're thinking about sideline reporters all of the time.
