I thought my video illustrated a running play :confused:

Oh, yes you were.

Unfortunately, I jot a little fired up over the posters calling for Adams' head and responded to that.

Flo still shouldn't have taken that swing.

The hotel is not even closest as regards most penalized. The announcers screwed up as usual. There are O linemen with more penalties as well.

I'm getting old (41) so it may be my eyes are just not what they used to be. :eek::
I'll take your word for the penalty but I'm still happy that the Hotel is parked over on TR's blindside. :p:

I love the attitude that from folks initially that it must have been a phantom call ... note that the replays shown never focused on Flo .. rationale people would have figured that the replay sucked rather than the refs

Since Adams ability as a left tackle seems to be taking a hit in this thread, allow me to go ahead and explanation my motivation for posting this particular video. AND I will offer the explanation without posting a completely different thread outside of this one--like, for example, if I were to say that Romo wasn't a good enough quarterback to lead this team to an NFL championship; but later wanted to cover my b-u-t-t sometime later in the same thread after Romo demonstrated quarterback qualities more than good enough to accomplish what I earlier claimed wouldn't have been.

And without further ado... ad-HEM!

Four score and seven years ago, our found...

~wrong notes! ah! here they are!~

During the game yesterday, I read other posters comment in both the chat room and the game thread that they did not see Adams commit a penalty which negated a (very well executed) first down.

FOX refused to replay the event, which I still consider odd form from the network, since neither Moose and the other guy (can't recall who he was/he wasn't an ex-Cowboy/sue me) didn't speculate how the penalty happened nor did the official offer any additional details which resulted in the personal foul.

Plus, I didn't see it, so curiosity took hold of my better sense (if you're reading this Flozell, I'm so sorry that I did you so wrong :( :rolleyes: ) and decide to find out of myself. After I found out for myself, I thought it would be nice for others (who didn't see it either) to see for themselves AND EUREKA!!!111!!!exclamation mark!! A video was born! Praise be the innernets! Eat your heart out Ed Werder! [strike]B[/strike]ESPN sucks!!! Another one bites the dust! Another one bites the dust! HEY! HEY! Another one bites the dust! And hey a hey a hey a hey hey...

oops. i got a little carried away there. :eek:: Anyhoo, that's the official reason behind the thread. :) I ask that everyone stop poking Adams' abilities as a left tackle with a sharp, pointy, little stick, but if you care to comment on how he accidentally [strike]clubbed[/strike] struck the Bucs defender upside the head, I don't believe anyone would mind. :D Maybe. :cool:

...that is only if you can make anything out in the video. Big, blocky pixels are the worst. :(

Just kidding, |2obert. ;)

I feel ya. It's been a year since my 44-year old eyes began seeing through prescription reading eyeglasses. Let me tell ya. They do come in handy when you're watching tiny videos. :wink2: :)

If they were both around the same age, do you think that Flozell could've taken Too Tall in the ring?

If Flo got in trouble on the ropes, his corner would throw a flag instead of a towel.

I can't think of a starting player for Dallas that as a fan you shake your head about more often than him...I wonder what his wonderlic score was :rolleyes:

Looks like the defender lowers himself when he make his cut back and Flo's arm is already at that level. Doesn't look dirty or anything. Crappy timing, but not the worst play I've seen him do.

I'm still not certain Flo actually hit him in the head as opposed to the upper chest. It's too quick and the video isn't that great of quality.
