Found September 26, 2012 on The Penalty Flag: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Golden Tate,  Russell Wilson,  Pete Carroll
TEAMS: Seattle Seahawks,  Green Bay Packers
Kansas-city-chiefs-seattle
Golden Tate, Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks stole one from the Green Bay Packers. There is no disputing that, anyway you try to cut it. Seattle fans are not ignorant. They understand their team won when it shouldn’t have. But they don’t care. A win is a win. And for a city that has been on the receiving end of controversy so many times in the past decade it feels nice to be on the other side of the spectrum. Seattle is a city that feels in 2005, they had a Super Bowl ripped away from them by officials. Super Bowl 40 was on of the most controversial Super Bowls of all time.… Read more

Seahawks WR Golden Tate Says He Pushed Versus Packers But Did Not Cheat

Via FootBasket  |  September 26, 2012
Lol. I swear, I fell out when I read this.  I know it’s not proper journalistic etiquette to start an article off laughing. Sorry. Where was I? The Seattle Times is reporting that Golden Tate has chosen to come clean. He admits to grotesquely pushing off in the Seattle Seahawks‘ controversial victory over the Green Bay Packers on Monday night. “I’m not going to...

Via The Sports Lion  |  September 25, 2012
Even though I didn’t post it here (I went to bed early, screw me), it should be terribly obvious by now that the replacement refs totally screwed up last night’s game between the Packers and Seahawks. I’m not gonna explain what happened because you should know what happened by now, but here’s a link if you need reference. Anyway, the blown call caused serious outrage, including...

The pundits will start the conversation on the controversial end to tonights Seahawks vs. Packers game in the morning but we can start it right now.

Karma: Green Bay Packers Robbed By Refs Vs Seattle Seahawks MNF – Video

Via Giants Kickoff  |  September 25, 2012
TweetIs it Karma? The Green Bay Packers are robbed by the replacement refs versus the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football. The play came on a Hail Mary throw from QB Russell Wilson to WR Golden Tate. Was it a horrible call by the replacement referees? YES! There is no doubt this was one of the worst calls in recent history, the tuck rule comes to mind as another. As a Giants...

Seahawks: “Intertouchdownception” at CenturyLink Field

Via Seattle Sports Nut  |  September 25, 2012
The Seahawks win their first loss of the season against Green Bay among a televised audience during Monday Night Football. Green Bay will lose to the officiating, not Russell Wilson and Golden Tate, 14-12. The positives came from the first half. Seattle’s defense showed up tough today sacking Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers eight times and rushing him out of the pocket...

Seattle Seahawks, Replacement Referees Make Great Team

Via Football Nation  |  September 25, 2012
It was fourth and last chance, throw it up, and pray. I had all but turned the television off, exasperated at another chance for Seattle to make a statement on a national stage.I watched helplessly as Russell Wilson scrambled right, perform the five d's of dodge ball, dodge, duck, dip, dive, dodge, and throw a bomb to the back left corner of the end zone.Who would have known...

The NFL will address the controversial call that ended the Seattle Seahawks' 14-12 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday, Steve Wyche of NFL Network reports. The Seahawks won the game on a 24 yard Hail Mary Pass from Russell Wilson when the officials ruled that Seahawks receiver Golden Tate and Packers defensive back M.D. Jennings simultaneously caught the ball despite...

SteelDad Breaks Down the Inaccurate Reception

Via SteelerAddicts  |  September 26, 2012
First and foremost, I am Pittsburgh Steelers’ fan. That also makes me a football fan. I have played and watched and coached a lot of football in my many years on this rock so while that doesn’t necessarily make me an expert, I do feel a certain amount of expertise. I feel, therefore, it’s my duty to break down this play in the only way I can and that means as sarcastically...

The straw that broke the camel’s back

Via Air It Out Sport  |  September 25, 2012
After an atrocious week of officiating I speak for everyone when I say, “The time to get rid of the replacement officials is now!” I literally saw messed up calls in every single game this week, some worse than others. I saw wrong spots on penalties, a hospitalized player on a helmet to helmet with no flag, not reviewing replay properly on a challenge, wrong calls and the list...

Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams: Week 4 NFL Pick

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  September 27, 2012
Seattle Seahawks (2-1) at St. Louis Rams (1-2) I love to exploit home/road discrepancies so the Seahawks are one of my favorite teams to bet. Since 2007, they are 29-14 ATS at home and 14-28 ATS on the road. Riding that trend is the reason why I’ve selected every Seahawks game correctly this year and for significant units as well. Going on the road to St. Louis this week, I plan...

Ed Hochuli And Other Regular Officials Return: What Now?

Via Football Nation  |  September 28, 2012
Finally it is over.  The replacement officials have finally been relieved of their duties and the real officials, led by Ed "Hocules" Hochuli, can take their rightful place back on the gridiron. This comes after the debacle on Monday Night Football when an official wrongly (no matter what the NFL says) awarded Golden Tate and the Seattle Seahawks a touchdown and consequently...

Prideful or Shameful Win? One Answer

Via Seahawk Addicts  |  September 26, 2012
A night that was supposed to go down in history as one of the greatest regular season finshes ever has been clouded in drama and controversy. Everywhere you turned on Tuesday morning was a debate over the final play of last night’s thrilling victory (or is it, say the so-called experts) over Green Bay. It was inescapable; even non-sports fans didn’t hear the end of it. And there...

The best replacements from sports and entertainment

Via Bacon Sports  |  September 26, 2012
If you are reading this then there is a 100% chance that you know about the BS call the replacement refs made in the Green Bay Packers vs Seattle Seahawks Monday Night Football game. Every part of the play from the non-pass interference call to the interception that somehow turned into a Golden Tate touchdown was complete garbage (though I had the Seahawks +3.5 so I can live with...
