Funny cartoon. At the risk on beating a dead horse here, after hearing Mike Wilbon on PTI this week explain how the Darrell Jackson pylon call was BS, I watched the replays and did a little research. Jackson's catch was in fact a touchdown per a rule change four years ago (At the very least, it should have merited a review). If one foot is inbounds and the other touches the pylon, it is a touchdown. Below is a link to John Clayton's column from March 2002.

I am a die-hard Skins fan and was kind of hoping that Bettis would get his ring to finish off his fabulous career. What happened in SB XL was atrocious and I hope for the good of the game it never happens again. Seattle had two TD's taken from them on bad calls, had a first and goal at the 2 taken back (that would have likely resulted in another score). Pittsburgh had the non-TD by Roethlisberger (by his own admission) and the TD from Randle El to Ward was after the bogus Hasselbeck low block call. Now Seattle had plenty of blown opportunities and executed bad clock management, but how in the heck could they have overcame all of that?
