Where was the penalty for Excessive celebration on holmes?

[Idgit]

No. But I'm not making excuse, I'm just saying they're not going to call that penalty.

Furthermore, upon examination, Holmes didn't immediately go into using the ball as a prop. His first reaction after catching the ball was to sit on the field. There was a significant lapse of time between the catch and the "salt shaker" celebration (adding the review) that I doubt any ref would have called a penalty.

They're just not going to call that play in a game of this magnitude.

Personally, I think the review on the Cardinals' last possession was more egregious. We were robbed of a chance to see Fitzgerald catch a Hail Mary, or attempt to catch one.

They absolutely should have called that penalty. And it would have had an impact on the last Cardinal drive. They blew it.

The block in the back penalty was a huge blown call, too. That's not sour grapes on my part, because I thought PIT played well enough to win and is a very good team. It is weird how many calls they get breaking their way, though. I'm not a tin-foil hat kind of guys, but the last two Superbowls do have me thinking about getting my head measured, anyway.

The lack of review for the last AZ attempt was bad, but had they reviewed it, I could have lived with the explanation that it was inconclusive. It was just weird how it got swept under the rug and barely mentioned even by the announcers.

It looked like he was doing the Lebron James pregame ritual powder throw.

Yeah I think he was...... I like the way LeBron does it better though...... Who knows if it was called they might have had an easier throw to the endzone and Warner might not have had pressure like he did on that play where he fumbled

This is about as blatant as block in the back gets and the refs missed it.........WOW.


The refs are so in the tank for the Steelers, its laughable.:laugh2:
