Can you name the NFL owner that gets at least 20 shots on TV in the owners box during every game? Jerry Jones of Dallas of course. Without any stats to back this statement my guess Robert Kraft of New England would be second in TV exposure during games. After those two I doubt you can even tell me who owns any other NFL team other than Jerry Richardson of the Carolina Panthers and the only reason we know that is the Panthers are our state's team. We had better know that. I would suspect the next TV time guy is Denver's John Elway but he is only the GM and he probably does have some ownership in Denver.
Funny isn't it that after the no interference call that should have been called on Dallas last week I didn't hear one Cowboy raise any fuss over no call being made. After Sunday's game and the incomplete pass you would think the NFL cheated Dallas out of a trillion dollars the way Dallas post game comments failed to mention one time last week.
Since I was pulling for the Packers as soon as the ball hit the ground I am up in front of the TV which by the way I had been almost all afternoon as N C State was beating Duke hollering for an incomplete pass which was confirmed on replay. You never know about the replay officials. I thought the replay was suppose to get the play right and I was very concerned they were going to give Dallas the catch especially after not calling interference last week.
The replay booth got the call right. Do I like the rule no? I grew up in football that the ground could not cause a fumble. Some where about five years or so ago the NFL decided that a receiver while going out of bounds needed to hold on the ball all the way to the ground. Since the play in question was not out of bounds the play was called as what has been the rule for sometime now.
So the NFL was consistent in the rule but was it right?
Have we seen the last of Peyton Manning? You would think from his performance the last few games of the season that Father time has caught up with him. Went 2 and 2 on the guesses in the NFL games this weekend. 4-4 so far in the playoffs.
Tonight's college national championship game I'm taking Ohio State for no reason other than that is what I think. Regardless of who wins the two best two teams are playing tonight. Ohio State 38- Oregon 35
