    what a fucking joke. And why is a team exec for another team the one to comment on this? I hate how the competition committee isn't 100% neutral.

    ok, what if it happened in a Lions/Colts game? I don't get why you think it's cool for representatives of specific teams to make and interpret the rules.

    because all the teams play by the same rules and they aren't changed during the season? if it was a colts/lions game, i bet the colts exec wouldn't be speaking on it.

    and as far as games are concerned, how the refs interpret the rules is the only thing that's important. has the league ever changed the outcome of a game after the fact because they interpreted the rules differently?

    Its stupid how people complain about this, its a rule, clearly understandable. He was showboating his catch, he should of curled the ball in and took a dive.

    There are 8 members of the competition committee, all representing a team. There are 32 teams in the NFL. That's what I think is bullshit. All the other stuff you're talking about, I don't care.
