Ole MAD, moving on with grace

Regarding the end of the Lions-Steelers game...

Isn't there some rule that forbids an offense from advancing a fumble in that situation? I'm thinking that even absent the PI call, the Lions' TD would not have stood up. Am I wrong about that?

Anybody remember these?
Gas stations would give em out or drinking glasses with cartoon designs when you would get a fill up during the 50’s and 60’s.

Never saw one in the days you said was avilable. Must be way up North.

The TD before that play should have not been a penalty.

That's way up North from where I was living (as a kid).

You make a good point on that play. If the last play was ruled a lateral (which it very well may have been) then it probably was legal

I'm referring to the Holy Roller Rule

Its not Waffle House .... Its WalMart.

Yeah. That’s racist and political ********.

I didn't see it painted that way. I saw a fight breaking out in public as usual these days.
I guess it could have gone in the "meme" thread or a fight thread somewhere?
Why does everything have to be labeled racist? People can fight & it not be that way. I remember in HS we'd get into fights (black & white) and we didn't think of it that way.

Ouchie…

Which is fine. The tone of the author of the post was clearly inviting violence on along a racial divide. If the baiting is wrong for “them” it’s wrong for “US”

The Steelers got called for Offensive PI earlier in 4th running that same pick play in the end zone...quit making damn excuses...YOUR HC said that one play wasnt the reason the Lions lost the game....


Edit: Rex Ryan is the white Stephen A.Smith he thinks he knows everything and is never wrong....

I have to admit I didn't have the volune up to hear what's being said.
I also have to admit there were some good haymakers landed in there.

I must have missed a good game. I'm just about all but burned out w/football.

Back in the 1970s, ABC had Starsky & Hutch on & I couldn't wait for it back then.
David Soul was the main star they went after in this buddy cop duo. RIP.
