If he was down, how can you have an IFP? The play was over.

I must say...this is trolling at the next level. Can't really believe this is being entertained.

I appreciate the kudos! APG. It is fun to think outside the box sometimes though don't you think?

I do think you could make a case for ball being dead before the pass, though.

A very poor case which would only be substantiated with a very, very quick whistle.

Some of work games in the real world.

I disagree. Neither of his knees touched the ground before he threw the ball.

I also wouldn't rule that forward progress was stopped. Mike Carey properly let Eli Manning play through an in-the grasp situation that is now called among the best non-calls in Super Bowl history.

I agree great no call on the Miracle play!! Mike and Don Carey support our local association with instructional advice and come to our annual officials banquet every year. We are very fortunate that these gentlemen take the time to help our program.

As for Big John I think he is most definitley a troll

I think Mike Carey ran to the wrong goal line to set up for a kickoff today. The camera caught him running the other way with an embarrassed smirk on his face. Even the top dogs have brain cramps sometimes.

When we do that in our local games here, the accepted mechanic is to pick up the piece of glass on the ground, so safety sake.
