what a BS call, roughing the kicker
They just called roughing the kicker on Baltimore, but the guy didn't actually touch the kicker. Talk about getting home-towned.
The to get some new refs. |

I think the kicker went to acting school. Horrible call.

Was that a call Baltimore could have challenged if they hadn't wasted their second one earlier? Bad call but I'm rooting for Pittsburgh so the end result was ok.

Don't really think it changed the outcome of the game, but it was pretty bogus.

Seeing as how all Baltimore's points came from drives with pass interference calls, maybe the refs felt the need to throw Pittsburgh a bone? Well, it isn't like the Steelers were able to turn the roughing call into points.

The roughing was BS, but the interference was a bigger BS call--and gave the ravens the short-field TD. Didn't matter in the end--the Ravens got manhandled--5 turnovers. It would have been worse if Sweed hadn't dropped the easy TD.
Great game--everybody stayed for the AFC Championship Trophy presentation--I thought it was a nice touch that Woodson gave the trophy to Rooney--looks like Rod is definately going into the Hall as a Steeler--as it should be. Funniest moment of the night was the guy below us in our section that had a big banner of Ray Lewis' mug shot.
