Purple tie, Mr. Aikman. Subtle, very subtle.

Ok, I was just curious what your point was. I believe however, you clarified your point a few posts above the post I am responding to here.

As Chazoe's attorney and messenger, he has informed me that he wishes for you to, and I quote "step on two nails, for each foot, and then moonwalk off a cliff."

Strange man, he be.

For the most part, it appeared that the officials let the teams play and really only called the obvious or flagrant penalties.

There was at least a couple of PIs that could've been called against the Jags, but didn't. The problem with is that the refs don't always have a good angle to actually see what players are doing with their hands, so the only way to get consistency would be to make PI subject to instant replay.

Refs can't celebrate? Also, why is a monkey being tortured in the background audio?

That will just drag the game on longer and if you are frustrated about what is "deemed" a catch as it is imagine the lack of clarity on what PI would be. I wouldnt want the NFL to walk into another nightmare like that.

they deserve to celebrate after that PI called on Bouye

Dont understand, the Pats are celebrating and the official is telling them to settle down.

The one at the end of the 1st half? The one that the announcers and the studio analysts ALL stated was the CORRECT call? If not, then which one?

Having 2 classes of penalties will just result in more diversity trouble for the nfl.

Smiling while pushing a player back who you're giving instructions to constitutes celebrating

The one down the sidelines when the WR was basically ran out of bounds? The one that often isn't called PI? That one?

The one later in the game makes perfect sense - he had him locked up and an arm around him.

He wasn't pushing back, that was clearly some celebratory dance move.

Careful dude.
