Joe Buck keeps on harping about how the penalties weren't enforces properly. Why does everyone ignore Matthews' head butt?

 

The league said that the offsetting penalties were not enforced properly. They were both dead ball fouls and it should have been fourth down. Instead the refs replayed third down and the 49ers scored. Horrible break for the Packers.

 

For sure. Matthews also should have been ejected.

During the early to mid 90's they made the coolest jackets. They were winter jackets with a half-zip in front. I loved FSU and wanted one, but they were so popular I had to get a knock off and the color scheme was way off. I felt stupid. Nike bought them a few years back, but now they are just working with Wal-Mart. According to Wikipedia, the famous half-zip jacket is coming back this fall.

3 Giants turnovers in 6 minutes.

I know. I had an Orlando Magic one in 7th grade.

I'm not saying I have any issues with Mel Tucker yet, but it would've been cool to get Kiffin to replace Lovie/Marinelli.

You had to have one of those to be cool when I was in high school. Got a Blackhawks one about '95 I think.

Somehow the introduction of the Giants defense reminded me of

even though the names weren't ridiculous

Yes, I know what the league said. As I referenced in my post that you quoted, I heard Joe Buck go on about it umpteen times.

 

As I also said, the Packers got lucky that Clay Matthews head butted a player and didn't even get a penalty for it. He should have been ejected.

Giants faking an injury. Cowboys players asking the refs to do....something...about it.

[Careless]

I feel bad about laughing at those giants concussing each other

Didn't see the head butt. I see two punches thrown right at Staley's head, though. Should get a fine for that, certainly.

Initially I thought it was a punch (posted as much) but on replays, it looked more like slaps at the helmet. The head butt came immediately after the two slaps/punches.

OK, got it. There's no way you can go to the head like that, in any case.

 

Plus, the hit out of bounds was just so over-the-top ridiculous. I know they got Staley for the follow-up and the call was bungled by the refs, but that was some incredible thuggery by Matthews on both sides of the play.

Maybe Monte Kiffen won't suck.

how was that cruz td not a "process" td like calvin johnson's? caught the ball in midair, got both feet down, reached out with the ball and dropped it when it hit the ground
