He deserves to be full Geathered for that shit.
First off, he said he told Sanders that. Secondly, he was joking. He also said he planned to sneak into the building early in the morning to erase that play from the film. [Reply]
Really, we're debating that play? I think I've seen him slide like that 12 times a season ... most times, he's touched. There was no touch, no whistle, so he jumped up and threw it. #getoverit [Reply]

I'm not saying they should have had to forfeit, or had a penalty or anything.
Just put it in your pocket and pull it out again when big meanie defensemen pick on poor fragile old men chucking the ball. [Reply]

Like I said, I've seen him do that a lot ... never had an issue with it, all the defender has to do is touch him. No touch, well guess it's legal to get up and do something. [Reply]
