D-Jack's Second Touchdown was good as well.......but wierd, it also "never existed".
Posted: February 8, 2006 4:04 PM
"A player no longer can be ruled out of bounds when he touches a pylon unless he already touched the boundary line." Straight from the NFL site, ruled changes made in March of 2002!
Again, D. Jackson caught the ball, his left foot hits inbounds then his right foot hits the pylon - TD!!!
In fact John Clayton wrote about this exact rule change on ESPN as well: "A player will be ruled in bounds if he touches the pylon at the goal line before going out of bounds. For example, a pass would be considered complete if one foot touches the pylon and the other foot is in bounds". Which happened exactly as the rule is written to the letter. Unreal.
Man this is just freaking great. Being at the game was by far one of the best experiences in my life. That was until the game started. I am still pissed off and it has been almost a week. I have the pre and post game on DVR and the game itself. I still can get to about 15min of the game before I have to turn it off. Being at the game I thought I was just being a homer and the officiating was not that bad. Now that I have seen the calls and heard what other people said I am even more pissed off. This is one of those losses that is going to stick with me for a long time.

Dom,
All I can say is write to Mr. Allen and Mr. Tagliabue......even if they don't read it, you at least feel like you are doing something
