People who I have immense respect for and understand the game to a level I don't feel the DQ was correct.. I still dont see it but recognize that if they suggest the DQ was OK that there is a lot of validity to it?

the key is the cosistency of the dq's

once the stewards pick and choose who they want to stay up and who they want to take down on close calls you may as well bring in the circus clowns

all kidding aside today's dq was correct

it doesn't matter IMO. I love 3/5's taken down. But when Rice's horse got back, they removed the saddle like they were OJ trying to hide a knife only he was in Cali and this was NYC.
