Official review of SBXLIII
It doesn't get anymore obvious than that, the ref is walking away with his back to the celebration. So yeah, nobody saw it. You know what really lowered the chances for the Cards win? Giving up an 82 yard drive with just over 2 minutes to go. Oh yeah, and a 100 yard INT return and fumbling on the final play. And, again, I never said anything about ignoring the rule.

If Bart Scott did the same thing to a Steeler, he would have been led off the field in handcuffs.

OK, obviously you're not up for a serious discussion. Drop the blind hate and fanaticism then I'll discuss the problems of the game with you. Till then, I'm out.
