The gist was that the referees set a bad precedent by reversing their call after the trash delay, it sends the signal that you can reverse a call by trashing the field.

This is a brand new take. Thankfully there is premium level information available only to people willing to pay for it, otherwise we never wouldve considered it.

It wasn't much of a read. Gay is a bit of a weenie NY sports writer. His primary point is that sipfan behavior is sort of indicative of where the country is headed. He thinks the refs should be held accountable for bending to home fan misbehavior. They should have stuck with their original call and tagged the home team with a penalty on the fans.

Quote:
"It's hard not to see Texas Football's Impromptu Recycling Night as another example of our cultural slide into Tantrum Nation, a depressingly self-interested society in which what matters most is who whines the loudestand civility takes a back seat to classlessness."

He admits it was a bad call, but basically meaningless in a game in which tu was being manhandled. He eventually devolves into whining about having to review the toe position on every NFL catch, etc, etc, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

I read this article. All you have to do is throw a fit and a few hundred water bottles, and you'll get your way. There is no other conclusion that can be reached from the fiasco at the Georgia vs Texas game in which a critical pass interference was called that would have negated an interception only to reverse it minutes later.
