I don’t think anybody here disagrees that alcohol is a poison. I still stand by and agree with everything else I said, especially about the shi**y foods that Americans ingest

you’re free to disagree all you want

Will you please shut your commie mouth about great American foods. No one wants to hear your complaints, Dmitri. Go stand in a bread line and eat some borscht with your vodka!

It's not the "actual" fair catch. It's where the player stands and puts each arm horizontally to their side. (See the pose that he took towards the SCjr sideline as example; that's what he was doing to call them out).

So, it's not an official fair catch sign that means the umps would call the play dead. It's a non-official signal that the entire receiving team takes to signal the coverage team "There will be no return; you will not be blocked; don't hit anyone".

(That's how he explained it in his presser.)

Instead, all the SCjr players made the signal so that the coverage team pulled off. Then everyone blocked the unexpecting coverage team, and the return guy apparently returned the ball for extra yards.

(I didn't see it. Just going off of what he said in his presser.)

If it's true, I have no problem with him signalling the other sideline to call them out. It's dangerous for everyone, in that moment and in potentially every future kickoff SCjr returns, as the opposing team can't trust the unofficial signal and have to make the choice between being hit/blocked when they pull back, or knock the hell out of someone that is taking a legit fair catch.

If all that was true Shane is a dooj-canoe. He's teaching his players to be unsportsmanlike doojes. And he deserved even more call-out.

Also, based on Shane's curt explanation of his anger, and the outrageous reaction on-field... He knew he'd pulled a major dooj-card, and he was just waiting to go unhinged if he were called on it.

Oh yeah, absolutely FORK Beamer.

I hope teams absolutely obliterate their coverage team guys when they throw the T up now. Can't trust them, so why respect the signal?

Come to think of it, Shane went all putrid-face disgusted that another coach would come over and taunt him "while [that coach's] player is laying there, hurt".

Well, after Bull Lima's explanation, consider WHY that coverage player was likely hurt.

Shane needs a good spanking.

NM, duh. It happened much later in the game.

Had one of those in the woods behind my house during the entire Christmas Season. Kept showing himself every night from 5 to midnight and again the morning from 5 to 8. He was about 14’ tall……was that you @Weezer ?

No, @Weezer is little yeti. Similar to our little people. He's probably about 3 1/2' tall.
