Interesting, but not what I was talking about.

I was talking about Pete Carroll’s and Bill Belichick’s last-minute decisions hoping someone would shed some light on why Belichick didn’t call a timeout.

It's a good question. That's what they're talking about up here, too. I go back to the Jeremy Lane injury, though, that opened up that side of the field for Brady and allowed him to construct these drives. There was also a tripping penalty against the Patriots as they tripped Lockette who would have had a first down and extended a Seahawks drive in the fourth quarter. No flag, yet the replay clearly showed he was tripped.

I would feel much better about the veracity of this victory for the other team if A) Goodell and Kraft weren't such good buddies; and B) If the team in question were more like the Colts or Broncos and didn't have a long and colorful history of, um, bending the rules.
