The NFL has Stupid Rules

Joey Porter's Pit Bulls has no love for Jerry Jones's Dallas Cowboys, but that was a catch.

Dez Bryant made the catch that was first ruled a catch but overturned on replay by indecisive officials who were following the letter of the law, as they interpreted it according to the NFL rule book. And that rule book is part of why the NFL continues to stand for "No Fun League." It's lawyer-ball.

Too bad for Cowboys' fans; while in Detroit, Lions' fans are loving the schadenfreude.

At this point, we have no choice but to pull for Indianapolis to beat New England; Green Bay vs. Seattle, eh.

Knowing that the Steelers whomped the Colts in the regular season does not make us feel any better about the state of the playoffs or what might have been.
