The refs giving Green Bay the ball after an apparent fumble against the Giants?
Or Iowa giving Romney the victory when it looks like Santorum actually won?

(2,036 posts)The Giants won, after all. It didn't change the arc of the game.
The Iowa call for Romney underscored a mistaken impression that Mittens was some sort of unbeatable juggernaut, ensuring his victory in NH.
It's not like the two are even comparable. Football is much more important.
