Vigsted said:"He maintained possession long enough to establish a catch.", because "long enough" is to me a very subjective term.
Long Enough means he had possession and made a 'football move'
that's the 5th time in this thread I've used that phrase
even though I don't think rolling over is a football move
maybe it is
like I said, authority needs to be given to someone in the booth
so that they may further deliberate on these plays
these on-field :45 second peep shows are far from adequate
TV viewers have close to 2-3 minutes to look at it before the on-field ref pokes his head under that cloak
also, I don't believe that they get the same feeds as the networks
so they might not get as good of angles as we do on TV

I know, but see Pereira also said "The rule regarding the performing of an act common to the game applies when there is contact with a defensive player and the ball comes loose, which did not happen here.". That's why I'm a little annoyed with the explanation.

Agreed. However I believe they get the same pictures as we do, however it seems that sometimes the producers don't find the really good angles until after they're done looking (they have what 24 cameras or something for big games?).
And Gunny, if you don't fight for your beliefs, what do you fight for? Besides, somebody need to provide entertainment around here, and I thank Puck for playing along :thumb:
