@Schopptalk The new stadium rules aren't posted and the old stadium page is down, but permitted items used to include a gallon-size clear zip lock bag of outside food.
@MichaelRCaputo@NorahODonnell Imagine reading excerpts from a would-be assassin's manifesto on network television. I think they're sending a clear message that, if you want to incite violence against this administration, we'll give you a platform. Sickening.
@CourtMattison No wonder I'm still struggling.
In other news, I was driving near Glens Falls, NY on Wednesday and saw a sign showing me which ramp to take for Rutland, VT. If I wasn't doing stuff for work, I would have visited your stomping grounds.
@TypeSafeMuppet@ByTimGraham For me, it was a clear and obvious pick the whole time. Ball never hit the ground. If the ball was ripped loose, it would have been incomplete. Following that logic, if the defender gains control and likewise doesn't let the ball hit the ground, it's an interception.
@N2EJeff@MikeGarafolo@NFLGameDay For it to be a tie, BOTH players would have needed to maintain possession through the process of the catch, either hanging onto the ball or another action common to the game. Cooks did not maintain possession. The defender maintained possession through the ground.
@terrychockey99@ByTimGraham That wouldn't really be consistent with how the league has been calling it. You need to survive the ground with the ball. If the defender would have forced the ball on the turf, it would've been incomplete. Following that logic, if the defender gets clear possession, it's a pick.
@ByTimGraham I think the most simple view was that it was a simple review. When I saw it, I thought it was a pick. When I watched the replay, it was a pick. Cooks didn't complete Element C of the NFL's catch rules. The defender gained control before the ball hit the ground.

For anyone who needs to hear it:
If you find an elected official who agrees with you 80% of the time, they're your FRIEND and ALLY. If you set your bar at 99 or 100%, your friend and ally could LOSE, ushering in someone who may agree with you 10% of the time.
Be careful.
