You should send the officiating crew a nice christmas card. Address it to the New york Jets. I'm sure they'll get it. That would be nice.

Yeah I feel the same about it now, though, because I know the rules.

Non can't let it go. Just like the Jets couldn't let go on all those holding calls that weren't called. Poor Steelers.

On first-and-10 from New York's 35 early in the second quarter, Mendenhall gained nine yards to the 26-yard line.

After momentary confusion as the chain crew began moving the sticks, referee Peter Morelli's crew put the ball down at the 25 and signaled a first down.

The extra yard gave Mendenhall a 100-yard game and Pittsburgh scored a touchdown on the drive. [READ]

The NFL has taken that yard back, so now it's officially a 99 yard game for him.

Mind you the first down and everything else still counts, but Goodell was too busy salivating over the fact that he would get to manipulate something regardless of how little sense it made in the grand scheme of things
