Witten was standing right there; no way he would have let it slide if the Eagles called "heads" without saying something.

lol exactly...

I mean seriously.... How do you start a dumb thread like this?

We're always looking for reasons why we lose. We didn't lose because of the coin flip. We didn't lose because of the refs. We loss because we aren't a very good team.

I was listening to the radio broadcast. Hockuli explained the OT rules, and asked the Philly captain what his call was. Not only did he clearly say "tails", but after he did, Hockuli asked him "tails?", and the philly captain repeated "tails".

All of this took place before the coin was ever tossed.

total and complete non-issue. the crap people will make up.

right, plus the ref repeated that Philly called "tails" before he tossed the coin and the Philly player didn't object in the slightest, seems to me if he had called heads he would have corrected the ref before the toss or at least attempted to do so or reacted in some way that the ref heard him wrong and he did none of the above

Is this one of those Blue/White dress things from the internet?

The Eagles says Tails, Hoculi says Tails, says Tails is the call then flips and says its Tails.

and if he called it heads and the ref changed it to tails on him, he would have freaked BEFORE the coin was even tossed. to even think of having this work would mean they would have had to plan this head of time with a 2 tailed coin to ensure it WOULD be tails, and then get mad at the guy for making the wrong call and having to correct him.

now if you were the eagles player and said HEADS and the ref said TAILS and was about to flip it - confirming before he does TAILS - would you sit there like a goob after hearing the ref make the wrong call on the toss?

geesuz christ people get stupider each day.
