I saw that one. Even for a commentator, that one was pretty bad. It wasn't like it was even close.
As far as Doug Getleib goes, it's typical armchair officiating from a commentator who acts like he knows what he's talking about. What made it even worse is they quoted the rule book, went back and looked at the play, and still disagreed about the call.
