Football: F**ked by the tuck
There are 16 sets of referees in the NFL, and not a single one of them understand or properly apply the tuck rule. Can we please get rid of it now? It served no useful purpose to begin with, and it certainly serves no useful purpose when it's incorrectly applied 100% of the time.
(By the way, I've been keeping track: the Raiders have now been screwed by the tuck rule four times since the 'Snow Job' in New England. Twice when the rule was used when it shouldn't have been, and twice when it should have been used but wasn't. I have yet to see a 'Tuck Rule' call go in favor of the Raiders. Tagliabu should just go ahead and rename it the "Anti-Davis Rule'.)
