The game is over. It was a very bizzare ending.
 
But let's not start another bunch of threads about it.
 
Thank you

I just got off the phone with Vegas, talked with Yoda about it.  It was a fix.  Even the more so after the holding call on the previous TD with Pitt run.

Obviously none of these rookies that are crying have ever lost before on bad calls.

 

I was finally on the right side of one

It really doesn't matter how much people lost, if they feel they were robbed it hurts the same

I still am unclear

Did they blow the whistle after the second forward pass?

It was a total clusterfuck

Not sure how they screwed it up then
 
I am not sweating it because I had the Chargers
 
I am pretty sure I would be upset too if I had Pitt
( I know I had the seahawks in that "strangely officiated" superbowl ( note I didn't say fixed  )

The best part was the explanation after the review...somethin like . After the review there was on illegal forward pass...(pause w/ confusion), TD w/ signal (then more pausing and confused look) game over...then a 2 minute discussion on whether or not to kick the PAT, followed by the TD being removed and 60 minutes except on the West Coast

The controversial ending of that game was bigger than the amount of money wagered. It should be discussed. It should not be let go. Officials need to start being held accountable. And, if there is funny business going on as far as fixing is concerned, it needs to be exposed not for bettors' sake but for the integrity of the game.

The fair thing to do would be to wipe that game off the boards because:
 
1) People who bet it on a parlay will at least win something from their other games 
 
2) People who bet it as a single game will at least get their original wager back, which they can use, to again get screwed out of next Sunday.

Fixed is a strong word, one I prefer not to use; but you knew this was coming (SD covering) when Pitt scored the safety. Even before the call in question, Parker's TD gets nullified for a hold! I only thought i had used up all the four letter words %$@!*#,,, but nooooooo.. fuckme running; Palu's cover TD gets called back %$#@!. Overall I didn't have a bad weekend; but this one blew my 6 team parlay. Congrats to all on the other side of this debauckle.
MNF love Buff -5.5 GLA

And I'm sure the people who had money on the Chargers would be fine with this option...
