Last seconds of Georgia at Arkansas

[just another ref]

Just thought of something. Several years ago, there was a kid around here who had a stroke before birth. (or something like that) He basically did everything with one hand, and by the way, was an outstanding player. So I guess he never "gathered" the ball, so he could never be called for traveling.

Ha! I was unaware of the reference. That's almost as good as the late Sen. Stevens referring to the internet as a series of tubes.

Funny Bush couldn't remember the name of "Google Maps" in that context.

Just like he said, "The internets" as well in a press conference. Then again I am a political junkie so that kind of thing is common knowledge for me and I got the reference immediately.

I don't think you heard me correctly: I stated that I was unaware of the reference. I did not mention you or your activities.

When I officiate that kid, I will worry about what he does. In this play he brought the ball together with both hands.

Can we talk about plays in the real world, not some special situation that none of us will see?

The point was touching the ball with both hands might or might not be significant. In the case at hand, it isn't.

That is why it is a judgment call. We all do not have te same judgment or standard of what is to be called or not called.
