The Detroit Lions were robbed of a victory by the Chicago Bears, after the refs called back a 35-yard touchdown by Calvin Johnson. While Johnson touched both feet on the ground and maintained possession, the officials ruled that he did not maintain control long enough. The rule is explained below:
The rule in question states, “If a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass (with or without contact by an opponent), he must maintain control of the ball after he touches the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, the pass is incomplete. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete.”
The video is above! && you guys can decide for yourself…. Go Lions!
Chad Ochocinco hosted tonight’s episode of WWE’s Monday Night Raw. Ochocinco and his Cincinnati Bengals suffered a tough loss to the New England Patriots yesterday, but he put it behind him to host Monday Night Raw. Hosted at the US Bank Arena in Cinncy, Chad introduced the event and called himself the best looking guest host. WWE wrestler, the Miz (also known as Mike from Real World New York) fought with the Bengals receiver claiming that the Bengals will never win a Superbowl. Though I may agree with the Miz… my money is on Ochocinco in this fight, he did take on a horse after all.
Give credit where credit is due…. Sidney Crosby was hanging out at PNC Park, home of the Pittsburgh Pirates, and hit an out of the park home run. Oh yeah Sid, thanks for stealing that gold medal from the US, and thanks again for ruining my dream of seeing a Stanley Cup win by the Red Wings in person (not once but twice).
