Now the ball remains live, and one team has a 5-on-4 until the player who was knocked OOB gets up and rejoins the play. Does that change anyone's opinion from a no-call to a foul?
There you go, getting logical again, M&M.

By the way, thought I'd finally get to see you Sunday ... was watching the Super Bowl and during one of the commercials I went to grab something to eat and my wife called out, "Hey, look, there's that M&M Guy again." No striped shirt, though.
