tskillz187 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 That was an awesome game. Two Hail Mary tries to Fitzy woulda made it a little cooler. Cuz if Fitz came down with a Hail Mary to win it, that's the end of the league, woulda had to hoped LeBron would come play safety or something. Link to post Share on other sites
rocketpoker828 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Don't understand why the refs didn't at least review that last play. Oh well, congrats Steelers/King, OSU alum Santonio Holmes for MVP obv. Link to post Share on other sites

NoSup4U 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 No idea why the refs didn't review that last play, its the ****ing superbowl and imo was a forward pass. But it just robbed us of a shot at a very unlikely hail mary so it's not as bad as how the refs robbed Seattle when they played the Steelers in the SB.Congrats Kinger, great game all around. Such an exciting (and sad for me obv) ending.Mark Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Erased 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 That's the first time I've ever watched the Superbowl, or American Football for that matter. Picked up the rules pretty fast, though, and the stopping/starting was a lot better than I though it'd be.Overall, I think that was a great game. Link to post Share on other sites

When they say stuff like that, its because theoretically the booth reviews every play. But if it was truly reviewed they would have stopped play, the booth would have signaled to the refs to go over to the replay monitor and review it, and they would have come back and reported their findings. None of that happened.That wasn't a forward pass, sorry.And Kurt, if you don't think that's a call that could have been overturned, then you haven't been paying attention to forward passes in the NFL for the last 10 years. I've seen MUCH clearer fumbles overturned. IMO the rule is kinda dumb because there are times when its clear the guy is hit and fumbles but because his arm happens to be moving towards the line of scrimmage they call it an incomplete pass. I think that's what would have happened here, but like I said, its somewhat of a moot point since the Cards would just have had 5 seconds left to throw up a hail mary. But there is no reason a play like that with 5 seconds left in the superbowl shouldn't be reviewed.Mark Link to post Share on other sites

The first one was easily a pass, the second wasn't.And once I knew I couldn't win my squares, I was rooting for AZ, it's not like I'm biased or something. Link to post Share on other sites
