Just goes to show how dumb the average sportsman is. Aren't these people supposed to have attended college? I've not read a single 'tweet' without at least one spelling and/or grammar error. What the fuck.

The patriots are 2-1, I refuse to accept any other theory

maybe b/c they on twitter...? & dont give a shit about spelling like 80% of ppl on twitter?

I wouldn't know, I don't use twitter. I also do not own a smart-phone so I would not know how easy or difficult it is to perform various 'updates' on there. But in hindsight, my remark was a bit preposterous: it aren't just sportsmen who are imbeciles of course, but rather a large portion of the general populace.
Any way, for me English is not my mother tongue and I have no knowledge of a lot of slang language. I found some of those tweets generally difficult to understand.

> The refs give y'all the game... : do the players update twitter during the match?
> Tate push off Sam and could hurt him very bad. > this is the sentence of a five year old
> Caused us a DAMN game > cost I assume, I had to think twice here
> All I can do is shake my head But God has a bigger plan for us Nothin but positive things that can come from this don't worry fans were good : sentence could have done with at least one . or a few ,
> Trying stay positive.. : not a sentence
> Gilbert Brown is a figure : Them ref's sucks / don't dis the best game in the world over money <= what does that even mean within the context of the events?
> Them guys played there heart out : the difference between there and their should be obvious to any one with vague notions of the English language.
> jak ass : , the insults are usually the only words that are spelled/used correctly
> No comprendo. => Exactly Marshall, my reaction.
>A picture I's really worth a thousand wards => Deep South or smart-phone cock up?

Yeah sure it's twitter and I suppose that can always be used as a cover. But, I'm also generally surprised by the blatant insults and use of harsh language on twitter. Famous sports people get called out for that frequently here.

u need to chill out lol

normally this doesnt happen (the insults) which is why there is a webpage dedicated to this instance

[mo_respect]

most comedic ending to a game ever. Roger Goodell you are a fucking clown

the best part was that the officiating wasn't too bad for most of the game. there were some bad calls, but at least they were somewhat sensable/they made up for them correctly.

then of course, there was that whole last drive by the packers and shit hit the fan

Austin Collie, man, gotta be the unluckiest guy in (or soon not to be in) the NFL.

lol you dont know much about blue chip athletes in the USA do you?

[dickman69]

Looking back they really just missed the pass interference and it's a wonder that offensive interference is EVER called in the NFL anymore. Superstar recievers can get away with essentially anything (i know golden tate isnt a "superstar"). Really not as bad a call as everyone's making it out to be, just because America's sweetheart fudgepackers lost & state farm can't make another commercial with Aaron Rodgers because he lost 2 games.

i meant to post this earlier too.

The play was reviewed, and the touchdown stood.

Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3, Item 5 of the NFL rulebook discusses a simultaneous catch.

"If a pass is caught simultaneously by two eligible opponents, and both retain it, the ball belongs to the passers. It is not a simultaneous catch if a player gains control first and an opponent subsequently gains joint control," the rule states.

That strongly indicates Jennings should have been awarded an interception. Tate never seemed to truly gain joint control. A little known part of the rule explains why it wasn't overturned.

The rulebook also states when a simultaneous catch is ruled, you can't review who made the catch. You can only review if it was complete or incomplete.

oh i guess the nfl has made real statements now
