Re: NFL 2014-15: Iron Fist Getting Rusty?

It's said that inmates have plenty of time to file stupid, frivolous lawsuits, and here's an inmate that's clearly not a GB Packer fan.

Hendrix is suing everyone responsible for overturning that call that fateful Sunday: the National Football League, its commissioner Roger Goodell, the league’s director of officiating Dean Blandino and Gene Steratore, long known (on this Facebook page, at least) as “The NFL’s Worst Referee.” Says Hendrix, when Steratore decided that Bryant “never had another act common to the game” after he made The Greatest Catch That Wasn’t a Catch in The History of the National Football League, the plaintiffs in this sure-to-be-tossed-out case “did suffer a true injury.”

He’s accusing the defendants of “fraud, theft and gross stupidity in the face of an undeniable catch.” Clearly, he says, overruling the obvious stole a victory from Dallas that day, “because the Cowboys would have perfectly created an ‘autobahn’ for DeMarco Murray to drive into the endzone for the score and victory.”

The morning sports talk radio show here brought two official NFL footballs in, one inflated to 12.5 psi and one to 10.5 psi. No one, including a former NFL linebacker, could tell which was which. Maybe if they threw passes outdoors in cold weather and tracked successful catches they may have seen a difference though.

Yeah, but none of them were quarterbacks who handle the ball probably tens of thousands of times, maybe even hundreds of thousands, from training camp through the regular season. And for how many years of that? it's been said that Eddy Merckx(greatest cyclist of all time) could tell when his saddle height was off by millimeters. Gun experts can tell when the weight of the gun is off. That's what happens when you spend that much time with the tools of your trade.

Do we need a huge investigation? They cheated...they got caught...

Fine them and move on.

(Talking in regards to the NFL, not anyone here)

Belichick just stammered out a high school physics lecture and then declared he's done talking about it. Possibly the most pointless press conference ever.
