Close Game But Not A Close Call


Close Game But Not A Close Call

        In this post David basically states the fact that the Green Bay Packers were definitely robbed of a win because of the call made by the replacement refs.  He then goes on to say that the Seattle Seahawks should be ashamed of themselves for gloating after the ruling on the field stood as a touchdown. The outcome of the game cannot be changed whatsoever and both teams are just going to have to look past the call and move on.  

        I agree with David In the part where the Seattle Seahawks should not have boasted after the call was made. On the other hand the players did not ask for this call to be made and did not expect it to become this big of a deal. The players just went about there business like it was any other last minute play which happens in almost every single NFL football game. The refs made an extremely bad call but the average viewer does not know the facts on why it could not be reversed. One ref called a touchdown because of inexperience and therefore the ruling on the field was a touchdown and even though there was a booth review you cannot overturn a touchdown to an interception, it can only be ruled incomplete from that point and it was definitely not an incomplete pass. So therefore the refs had to go onto the field and stick with the call that was made on the field. It is a down right terrible way to lose a football game but there really was nothing that could be done about it.

             The main goal here for the students was to see how long they could go without using a computer at all for any of there homework or any other thing they wanted to accomplish.  My main question was, why even try to do this?  Your computer is basically your life in the present day.  You can use it to pay off bills, check your e-mails, calendars, social networking, movies, and even the date or what time it is.  The students found out very quickly that they had a lot of extra time on their hands that they did not have prior to giving up there computers. They found themselves very bored and struggling to find things to do at first. One of the students had a job that required her to use a computer, now if this was actually your career in life it probably wouldn’t be a good idea to be giving up your computer for weeks at a time. Her boss said since its for another class he would let it slide and she could continue her job.
