|  steelers vs da chargers, bad beat or good call?
that was the craziest ending to any game i have ever seen, i am soooo glad i had no action on that game. not sure what the right call on that one was, if they counted the td they would have made them kick the extra point, 11-10 score seems shady. i wonder how many charger backers in the sportsbooks ripped up their tickets and threw them on the floor after the last pitt td....funny stuff.
pitt backers, i am sorry
charger backers, congrats, great to be on the right side

I agree, that last second play was great to watch but the call on it was ridiculous. The touchdown should have counted since the ball never touched the ground. | |

The holding call was not ridiculous. It was as obvious as they come actually. That gets called holding 100% of the time.
I turned the tv off after the FG, had no idea what happened until later. | |

You are right Nick, I didnt mean the holding call, I meant the decision about the ref cancelling the play and not letting it run. | |

I was on the Chargers +4.5 - I turned the TV off right after he fell into the end zone just numb thinking I had just experienced the worst beat of all time...
Wasn't until about 30 minutes later that I logged onto some of the forums and quickly went to my account and found it was credited as a win...
Pretty crazy stuff when it comes out what a big swing it was in Vegas with the bad economy, etc..hard to imagine there was that much of a conspiracy with the number of people that would have had to be involved, but it sure does make one think..... | |

Well said, you hope that there is no outside influence but as time goes by I am more inclined to think so.
Your experience is kinda like a Christmas morning when you open all your presents and don't get what you want and then later your dad brings out your Red Ryder BB Gun......the ups and downs, good stuff.
