    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers

    adding to the confusion of this is that there is some kind of squeak that sounds like a whistle just about when Maxey is giving the ball away while on the floor. One of the trainers or an assistant right next to them is doing a funny clapping-into-TO motion when it happens which makes it look...

    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers

    On the inbounds Nurse has his arms up, ready to -- but not calling -- a timeout until after the pass was thrown. Arguably you could say this all occurs mid-air, but I think he's also calling it while Maxey catches it and the officials could have called a timeout there. After the ball is...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Not trying to get into this too much but I did this too because I couldn't watch it live. The push was pretty light, you can see his upper body move but he literally takes a half step from there and it doesn't seem to have affected his gait or act like some kind of rocket booster. He doesn't...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Either Ohtani and Mizuhara were running a years-long gambling conspiracy in which they absolutely never slipped up and documented it anywhere, even accidentally, a single time -- which included Mizuhara being recorded by the bank impersonating Ohtani so poorly over the phone that it ended up...

    Colts Next Banner: We Almost Had McDaniels

    11 of 12 Indianapolis Coaches found to be significantly under contract that seems to be mostly true in the NFL, but as you said, McDaniels going to Indy and failing to win basically ends his chances at establishing himself as a head coach in the NFL ever again. It's totally worth it in such an...

    The Goat Thread: SBLII vs Eagles

    These are all related. Not a single holding call all game. Philly had one of the top defenses in the league, with a great line, and they could barely got to Brady. Harrison, just for example, was being held on every snap. McDaniels should have recognized this earlier. In a game with 1 punt, and...

    The Nation's Tears: Volume II

    There's another one, where a ref (34) is smiling while congratulating/patting Brady on the chest as they walk by each other. That people are even using this one is kind of crazy, though. It's like a political hatchetjob, seeded by people not even attempting to be truthful. Feel free to point...

    2018 NFCCG: Eagles v. Vikings

    This post is nonsense. It's not true that Vegas tries to balance out the bets, because then people would bet, and it wouldn't lead to even betting? Vegas balancing out the bets is why nobody can beat them consistently. They use high information to set good initial lines, and use wisdom of the...

    That's an incredible shot and angle, especially with the big screen up in the background. NOLA defense already penned in the W. Half the team watches the play as soon as the ball is thrown (around :07), especially the other safety #48 who pulls up from coverage and stands still for 3-4 seconds...

    Looking at the replay it's hard to tell, but he does seem to be early and would have thrown off his timing. A little hindsight makes him look a lot better, and the rest of the team worse - wtf were they??? The CB he takes out, #20, pulls up jogging while the ball is still in the air

    The Game Ball Thread: Week 6 at the Jets

    So your argument is essentially that, had this been a lateral, it should have been ruled a touchdown? But because he had possession before, it makes sense that it's a touchback? I'm not even sure what edge case this rule is supposed to be guarding against. A runner with a ball punched out from...

    The Game Ball Thread: Week 6 at the Jets

    You said it was kicked. I said it was kicked. It's pretty simple: you can lose yards on a fumble you recover. You can gain yards on a fumble you recover. You can lose yards on a fumble out of bounds. You cannot gain yards on a fumble out of bounds. If it's kicked, and you touch it or fumble it...

    The Game Ball Thread: Week 6 at the Jets

    I don't have a problem with this rule either. You can't advance the ball on a fumble or else you would have seen rugby or Aussie rules style lobbing and kicking. A muffed kick is different from a fumble because you don't need to ever have possession of the ball, it's just a live ball. A team...

    The Game Ball Thread: Week 6 at the Jets

    Oh, only penalized with an arbitrary turnover and 20 (not 25) of the most important yards on the field. Okay. It's not the same rule. If the player fumbles the ball and it bounces forwards out of bounds to the 1, it's a touchback because you can't advance the ball on a fumble out of bounds (or...

    1) Fumbles out of bounds can't change possession. 2) Fumbles out of bounds can't advance the ball. Yet here we are, where an offensive player fumbles the ball before breaking the plane -- which would end the play and result in a TD -- with the result being the ball being advanced over the end...
