Makes you wonder why it's still IN THE BOOK, then, doesn't it?

If it was right in front of me, with 140 million TV viewers (many of them officials, and one of them Mike Pereira), I would hope to God I'd make that call. Why wouldn't you? It's the right call. You were in the right position. IT'S THE RULE.
