And that may get him suspended from PGA Tour for up to 1 yr. I'm actually surprised that the PGA has a banned substance list. Being all hopped up on roids wouldn't help a golf swing much. Pga drug list is more interested in drugs that can calm the nerves - things that can cure the yips on the putting green. Heard a quote from David Feherty.

Because I spent my entire career looking for one." -- Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty - Ronald Reagan

CylonRed Premium,MVM join:2000-07-06 Bloom County	reply to footballdude said by footballdude: said by Linklist: said by rockotman: Love Jim Harbaugh whining for the penalty. So typical. SF had 4 chances to get a TD with 1st and goal and didn't get it done. They lost it on their own hook. I've always thought that throwing the ball to the corner of the end zone and hoping your guy outjumps the other guy is a sign of an offensive play caller that's run out of ideas. Problem is - that close to the end zone that is about all there is to do unless you have a back that can carry people into the end zone. Would have been better for the 49'ers to be on the 15 yard line. -- Brian "It drops into your stomach like a Abrams's tank.... driven by Rosanne Barr..." A. Bourdain

berserken join:2011-03-27 Oakland, CA Reviews: ·Comcast	reply to Moorecards »www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEXtzYqkLA8 Couple of points: •No stiff-arm from Crabtree that I can see. •Smith latches on before 5 yards out from line of scrimmage (5 yard line) and hangs on well into the endzone, where it looks like Crabtree tries to scrape him off. •Rule is ref calls a hold if defender holds after 5 yards. •Instead of change of possession, it's 4 more downs starting at the 1. •Simms made a few dumb remarks. •It's a hold, call it. There isn't a different set of rules for the end of the game.

Rook008 Miles To Go Premium join:2002-02-05 Far Rockaway, NY Reviews: ·Verizon FiOS ·RoadRunner Cable 1 edit	Crabtree has his right arm straightened into the defender's body and then his left on his helmet. The defender is holding Crabtree ~~for almost the entire route~~ from the 1 yard line into the endzone. The line of scrimmage is the 5 yard line. But the refs weren't throwing flags for that the entire game, why start at the end? -- "Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats." - H.

rockotman ...Blown On The Steel Breeze Emerging Research join:2000-08-06 DSotM kudos:2	reply to berserken OK - you want to question officiating? •Why wasn't an out-of-bounds hit called on the defensive player when Flacco was throwing the ball as he went out of bounds. The hit occurred well after he was OB, and the defensive player had time to pull up. That would have lead to a Baltimore 1st and goal, instead of the Ratbirds settling for a field goal. •How about the nice acting job when Akers went down after the missed field goal. Click me if necessary •Remember when Roddy White got mugged by Navarro Bowman on the 4th down at the end of the NFC championship game? No flag was shown. Bowman even admits it. That "no-call" routine goes both ways. Mike Smith didn't go all Merlot or Chardonnay after the game, did he? -- Shine on you crazy diamond...

berserken join:2011-03-27 Oakland, CA	reply to rockotman Acting job? How is that the case? Even the commentator said it was more like roughing the punter, which would have brought a first down, not 4th down 5 yards closer. Sure, it goes both ways. Better game would be to have better officiating.

rockotman ...Blown On The Steel Breeze Emerging Research join:2000-08-06 DSotM kudos:2 1 edit	Commentator? Phil Sims? Give me a break. He talks just to hear his own voice. The camera doesn't lie. Akers starts to go down before he is even touched. And the degree of touch would not have been enough to knock a man down. Give Akers an Oscar! [EDIT] Isolated frames from the gif. No contact, right leg on the ground. Still no contact, right leg still on the ground. Ooops... look... here comes the right leg up... Oh help me... I've been roughed...

sailor Premium join:2003-10-21 Long Island kudos:6	reply to Rook008 said by Rook008: Crabtree has his left arm straightened into the defender's body and then his right on his helmet. The defender is holding Crabtree for almost the entire route. But the refs weren't throwing flags for that the entire game, why start at the end? When it happened live it appeared to me Crabtree extends his arm full length and uses it to push so hard down on the defenders head ( helmet ) he pushes him to the ground I just am not seeing what so many others are saying was a obvious holding call by the defender preventing Crabtree from getting to the ball......he looked to me like he was moving just fine while pushing hard on to the defenders helmet and chest....not to mention the ball way over everyone's head.. If the camera didn't catch Harbaugh showing his very animated holding gesture hoping to to get a call knowing they just lost...... this so called non call would not be so widely discussed today in my opinion only. But with that said, you make a point about the refs and why start calling stuff now.

Rook008 Miles To Go Premium join:2002-02-05 Far Rockaway, NY Reviews: ·Verizon FiOS ·RoadRunner Cable	reply to sailor Yeah, I had to edit that post a bit after watching the replay again. The defender seems to grab Crabtree under the right arm at the beginning while Crabtree is pushing off. Kaepernick really had to get the ball out quick with the Ravens pass rush about to murder him, so it might have been overthrown. Plus after the defender is on the ground he throws his hands up as if he's looking for an offensive penalty. The way the game was being officiated up to that point in the game, I can understand the lack of a flag. Not a big deal to me. -- "Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats." - H. L. Mencken
