we're now in a "common ground of disagreement where there simply is again - no good answer. we all come in and post around our own time, attitude/mood of the day and for however it's going to his us in our own way.

we're in a hurry and have to see someone go BUT BUT BUT IT WASN'T A CATCH!!!! it gets old. esp. when we have game threads and other thread already in progress that are dealing with the very topic. go find it and dive in with others who are already wanting to talk about this and have yet to have enough stimulating conversation on how bad the refs are on any given play.

like you, i find it difficult to not say something when i've alreaedy had to wade through it time and again which only lets me know for a fact it's there vs. seeing someone have to dredge it up again vs. join the convos already going on.

it's a never ending story man with no good way to do it cause we all post differently and that's not likely to change regardless of how many groups or filters people put up. (not a slam, just a recognition of a tough job to run a forum and make as many happy as you can).

We are on similar ground, but a different ball park. You get tired of seeing these threads, i get tired of seeing opinions being bashed. That is the main difference between you and i.

He had full control of it when it hit the ground the first time, the ball never moved in his hands. Had he dropped it then, might have been incomplete. He got up and was hit, fumble, safety.

Irony of it all Worst part is, we won the challenge (had to challenge it) but winning the challenge ultimately cost us the game. If they score then, we get the ball back with 6 minutes to go tied. Instead, they got the ball, went ahead and we were behind.

Still, had to challenge it.

I believe I have some game video that shows the ball move when it hits the ground.

except my intent of my own post wasn't to bash their opinion in as much as to say find an existing topic on it and let's not start another one.

wow - are we handling this like adults? : )
 
And I believe you were behind the grassy knoll filming that ball move when it hits the ground

people read my sarcasm in different ways, it's all good. : ) and i think i did slip a few times to the world of all-caps, but since i rarely use them i'll ask for an overlook. :)

to be a catch you have to make a football move with possesion.

He did not do that.

He caught it but then hit the ground before he made a football move.

NO FUMBLE!

You can say that as many times as you like but it was a catch and no one has disputed that from Parcells or the replay booth. Fact is he caught it and while trying to run with the ball slipped, regained balance and had the ball knocked loose. You want to whine about it fine but it does not change the fact it was a catch and a fumble!
