The NFL-WWE got their Wish (vanity)

Everyone knew the NFL was going to make America's Team pay for winning against Detroit last week. The NFL and the Liberal Media both loathe the Dallas Cowboys. EVERY bad call went against Dallas today, including that abortion of an overrule when Dez Bryant caught that ball, fumbled it into the end zone, and recovered it for a Touchdown.

The rest of the NFL season is just Kabuki.

During the halftime of the Colts-Broncos game, the VP of NFL officiating even confirmed that Bryant didn’t have control of the ball.

Furthermore, reviewing his foot had already TOUCHED GROUND.

Now, they are trying to use the cover “process common to the game”.

if so, the ruling should never been reversed.

The idea there is a conspiracy against the Cowboys is laughable. If anything, the NFL would love to see the Cowboys advance since they get great TV ratings. The rule is absurd but the referees got the call right.

And, after the Lions got screwed last week when the referees picked up a flag on an obvious pass interference call, you have absolutely nothing to complain about.

You can make stupid names like Cowpokers to show you’re a child. They are a very good football team. They played in the two toughest home field advantages this year - Seattle and Green Bay - and went toe to toe each time, winning one and almost winning the other.

I’m proud of my team they had a great season. You have immature nicknames.

Oh and a football move is a catch

Correct, he had already caught the ball and had control when it hit the ground after his knee had touched. Ball touches the ground, play over. The ground does not cause a fumble.

Watch it again, when Bryant hit the ground he had control and on top of that his knee hit before the ball came out.

The referee commentating for CBS said he would have reversed and why. The reversal was correct. But, the rule is a joke and should be changed.

I have loathed the Cowboys for decades but it certainly looked like a good catch to me. I look at the reversal as the universe correcting last week’s injustice which allowed them to win. That, or Jerry Jones forgot to put the shoebox full of cash in the Ref’s locker this week.

The NFL always considers guys falling to the ground at the time of a catch like that as “in the act”. Nothing new there.

Dallas outplayed Green Bay today, and did what was necessary to win. They dominated the Packers in every area of the game

You're full of it. Aaron Rodgers, on one good leg, dominated in the second half. The Packers had more than twice as many yards as the Cowgirls in the second half (301-134).

If Rodgers were completely healthy, the Packers would have destroyed the Cowboys.

I’ll never understand how so many grown men in this nation can get so emotionally invested in a bunch of strangers playing a game designed for children.

Yup. I won’t watch another NFL game this year. Probably next year too.

Well done, NFL. You have made it clear that the NFL is as ethical and real as the NBA under Donaghy. /spit

IOW, the NFL is now little more than the WWF. /spit again

It was also complete bullshit that the pass interference call against the Cowboys was nullified last week.

What goes around, comes around.

What’s wrong with basing your self-worth on how a bunch of men in their 20’s and 30’s play a kid’s game?

And this post is an example of why some of us in the northern states who are not liberal do NOT like the Dallas Cowboys. "America's Team"?? Pffft. . . The Green Bay Packers have won more NFL championships than any other team.
