I've never been a hardcore follower of the national sports media since DC rarely ever gets some love from them, but he was more enjoyable to watch than guys like Joe Buck, or Mike Milbury/Jeremy Roenick/Pierre McGuire, or even Colin Cowherd, whose goal in life seems to be how many outrageous statements he can make to get people to tune in. RIP Stuart Scott, and sorry for your loss SS.

That's awful news. I wasn't even aware he was sick.

49 is way too young to die. Very sad news today.

Scott was transformative of sports reporting, and by all accounts a good man and devoted father. Sad day.

I hope not. We do fit the profile for sure though. If we were on there, I don't even want to think about the nAme change crowd coming out of the woodwork. Mad drama, kids. Mad. Drama.

new rule change - home team cannot replay plays on the jumbotron when there is a flag on the play and a new snap has not taken place yet.

several lions players say officials were looking at the jumbotron prior to picking up the flag. are flags subject to video review? no.

this is kinda like the clock boy letting a few extra seconds tick off in college basketball if it favors the home team ... or the possession arrow not being changed when it should have given possession to the away team (maryland vs duke)

Yup. That would be an excellent rule.

Here's an interesting tidbit:

one quick question, why is it in the finance section of Yahoo?

Reffing this year either was paid off in some instances or at the least, as abysmal as the replacement refs were, and this is during the playoffs.

I just saw the PI play for the first time. All I can say is Wow!, the guy never turned around, and ran through the receiver. I would say that it just shows that PI should be reviewable, except that I have seen them blow calls after going to replay and then give a bogus justification.

I wasn't aware he was a Cowboys fan until yesterday... didn't think it was possible to have any more disgust for the guy but he pulled it off.
