...BUT WAIT! The refs rule "Williams gave himself up." Play dead, Redskins ball.
Super Bowl, Denver vs. NY Giants. Throwing from deep in their own territory, Elway completes a pass to his Tight End for a first down...
... BUT WAIT! The refs call it incomplete. It goes to the replay booth for review... but the clock doesn't stop and the Broncos are forced to run a play. The play results in a safety - and the replay booth announces the original pass WAS COMPLETE... but it's too late. The Safety stands.
AFC Playoffs, Denver vs. Kansas City (yes, that same game). Chiefs punt, ball CLEARLY bounces in the endzone, but it's called dead at the one-yard line. Of course, in THAT GAME the Broncos overcame that travesty and WON instead of crying about it for the next decade+.
Good enough for you?
