  1. And had the logo itself crossed the plane, maybe they would have had a point...and if the logo weren't green with "Jets" in white letters in it...and if it were football sized... But as it was, only the crown of Vinnie's helmet crossed the line. Amazing thing is, that's STILL not the stupidest call ever. Close...but it's not quite to the level of lunacy butchering a coin toss...
  2. The gecko gimmick is overdone...but aside from that those commercials still show a high level of creativity. A commercial featuring the gecko in a talk-show format explaining how people won't realize they're watching a commercial? Nicely and subtly ironic. Geico's got some good ad people working for them. Better than !@#$ing Burger King, at least. Women dressed as tomatos flying through streams of water?
  3. You'll find it under "Vinnie Testaverde". "But we thought it was the football...it looked like the football...the football's white and spherical with a Jets logo on it, isn't it?" What really got me about that play was thinking back to when a Bills' RB (McGahee, I think) was called down laying on top of the pile before he reached over the goal line with the ball. And yet, Rothlesberger can be down on the ground, reach over, and they call it a score?
  4. That would seem to close the issue, then. No TD.
  5. But...but...but...it's not just a razor. It's a particle accellerator as well! How else am I going to generate subatomic particles while I shave in the morning?
  6. Yes, that's the rule for possession, and yes, theoretically you should be required to have possession before you hit the pylon...but is that what the rule says. I mean, is there somewhere where it says "If you hit the pylon with possession of the ball, it's a score", or does it just say "If you hit the pylon, it's a score." I could see them wording it either way.
  7. Is the rule explicitly clear that you must hit the pylon with possession? Or is it only implied? I mean, it makes sense to any rational person...but I've found NFL rules to occasionally be other than rational, particularly when it comes to possession and the plane of the goal line...
  8. "How DARE they imply unnatural marital relations between a monster and a robot! Oh, wait...they're cousins? Never mind..."
  9. Actually, that's an old commercial. Not even originally for the H3, they just dusted it off and re-aired it. Apparently they spent so much on the slot they didn't have any cash to film a new commercial...which shows you how well the American auto industry is doing...
  10. Well...first Thurman fumbles twice. Then he sits on the bench and pouts...
  11. Not even close. Watch the league issue an apology to the Seahawks on Tuesday.
  12. It has nothing to do with the Stones. Some people are just bitter and need to complain about something new every five minutes.
  13. Actually, I think he just mainlines it. And most ANY singer sounds like sh-- outside the studio. I'll still take the Rolling Stoned over Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake any day.
  14. You also guessed that sound travels faster than light in space, you idiot. Even if you didn't know that the technology is inexact (which it is - it requires someone to draw the line on a screen in the production booth), the networks admit it is.
  15. And amazingly, they haven't hit that point yet. Not musically, at least. I think Kieth Richards has been clinically dead for years, but no one's noticed.
  16. "Because Madden said so" is a symptom of clinical insanity.
  17. 41 years. 41 years. Just their longevity gives them a credible claim to "Greatest Rock 'N' Roll Bad Of All Time".
  18. Looked like a good, heads-up play to me.
  19. Does everyone forget that Moulds was called on a much less obvious push-off this season? Yeah, it's crap...but it's consistent crap.
  20. Probably thinking "What the hell is Favre doing out there? Wait...where am I?"
  21. That's different. That was a "black on black" crime.
  22. He invented the six-legged turkey.
  23. "Parity". Everyone tends to the same level of mediocrity.
  24. Another friggin' incomplete pass...
