NFL Super Bowl XLIX Sunday Game Thread

LaFell would have caught the winning TD on a hail mary from 55 yards.
 
Wonder how long it will be before the officiating crew from the Super Bowl puts out a statement saying the "bad call" that cost Seattle the Super Bowl wasn't made by us? :thumbsup: I've heard "a bad call cost Seattle the Super Bowl" a bunch of times since Sunday, if you didn't watch the game you'd immediately think the refs must've blew a call.

Here's a counter, Andre

Over the last few years, a cottage industry has grown around the Gladwellian proposition that the truth is rarely simple, and a greater understanding can be—must be!—revealed through deceptively simple changes in the way we view the world, perhaps with the aid of game theory or statistics. The call-and-response is ritualized, by now. A Professional Smart Person sees some knee-jerk reaction by the public, ducks into a spreadsheet, emerges with a surprising, insightful position that quells the idiots, and onlookers cheer while cracking wry jokes about the basic human condition of stupidity.

this was probably discussed 20 pages ago somewhere, but I just got online-- it is beyond me how refs can watch the reply I watched and not call that a catch by the Panther receiver. I watched it once and it was obvious-- the ball never touched they ground. The commentators seems to agree with me.
