Even according to the rule it was a bullshit call. His arm is in forward motion, then OBVIOUSLY changes motion as he pulls it into his body. Any sane, rational, clear-minded observer can see his throwing motion had been terminated. His arm was coming IN to his body, NOT moving forward. It's idiotic to suggest otherwise. IDIOTIC. The rule was MISINTERPRETED, so miss me with that "bad rule, right call" bullshit the NFL and Pats fans feed us to pretend like that whole post-season was in any way legit.

IT'S A FUCKING LIE, AND THE MOST BULLSHIT SPORTS CALL I'VE SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE*.
