I guess that means he's a sore loser AND a moron.

2. How so?
It was judged that he would've landed inbounds if not for the push.

How is that a bad call?

3. Elbow touched out of bounds before 2nd leg touched in end zone....

defender didn't contribute to him going out of bounds. Hate to see the Cowboys win that way.

6. Defender DID contribute
That's my opinion and that of the refs as well... and anyone with a functioning brain and eyes. ;)

11. Kidding of course
but apparently it's a judgment call that can't be challenged. Not sure if it can't be challenged because of the time or because of the type of call, but that's what I heard.

I'm just shocked Holmgirl is still whining. What a baby.

4. The guys in the TV booth had no doubts it was a bad call...
and the replay was pretty clear.

7. Hello...
they're MORONS.

They somehow failed to notice Rice's blatant offensive interference in the first TD of the game...

Shit I didn't know anyone listened to those tools.

12. He has a point, it shouldn't have counted.
But all this whining doesn't really matter now, it's in the books. The NFL replay officials blew the call, it's their responsibility under 2 minutes in the half. Mike has bigger problems than the officials, his team sucks after supposedly being in position to challenge the Eagles for no 1 in the NFC. He's going to get fired if they miss the playoffs.

13. I disagree
I think he would've come down in bounds.

The point of this thread is that he's a moron for STILL crying about it.
