Kick looked good.*

Hey guys, he missed it. Period.

Unless you were standing directly under the goalpost, as the officials do, you would never know if this kick was good or not. Period.

Why argue? No one can prove anything other than the explanation of how a paralax view works.

You know very well that somewhere a guy seated directly behind the goalpost has
a picture on his iPhone of the ball as it passed over the goalpost, maybe the Duke fan
on the grassy knoll.

If you're not standing DIRECTLY under the goal post and looking STRAIGHT-UP then there's nothing, zilch, zero, nada - anything that would prove it different... period. Can't be done.
If you're standing just a couple of feet to either side of the post you still would not know for sure.

Okay it's not FOOTBALL, but I played Rugby Union for 7 years and many games are officiated with the two side judges being a player from each team - there's only one center judge.
I can't count how many times I stood under one of the posts to judge a kick, and more than a couple of times I know I would have called it different if I'd been a few feet off to the side, or behind or in front of the goal post, instead of right under it...

No picture on this earth can prove different from what the ref saw. I trust he called it right.... why wouldn't he?? To argue that is ridiculous.

This is a silly thread.... I'm done.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if you were joking or not.... he's probably cockeyed, too.

You will get there.

...or overly stupid but don't take that personally, either.

We mock what we don't understand.

Time to kill this thread...

Just trolling for a pulse. Never mind, I'll shut the door on my way out.
