The ball touching your finger tips does not equal control. Put our fingertips on top of a football. What happens? It falls to the ground.
Yes, but momentum and acceleration were playing a part as well as gravity. The ball didn't fall straight down it went in the direction of the momentum and acceleration.
He didn't have control of the ball. It sucks but the refs made the right call. Momentum and acceleration are irrelevant. He has to have control of the ball when the ball crosses the plane and he did not.
No they are both very relevant, momentum produced by pig when he jumped toward the end zone and pushes his hand out helped keep the ball in his hand for a split second longer.
Also there was a slight breeze blowing towards Pig so when he dove at the goal line and extended the ball the wind pushed the ball into his hands for a split second longer.
Did you gradumatate from Alerbamer?
I loved Larry as I grew up listening to him. But he went a little overboard with the "hobnail boot" thing. Didn't make sense to me. I think it was a senior moment as he was pretty old at the time. Anyway.........
