I've seen guys do the same thing, but right when they are about to snatch it up, the ball bounces in a completely different way and they miss it completely. You want to talk about skill, those two TDs (1 called back) he gave up was skill (or lack thereof). :P

I'm not really trying hard, some of what I said is pretty much straight from the article you brought into the thread. I'm not going to continue to argue this point, I already said that I believed the ball not bouncing out of bounds had to do with luck, but you're completely ignoring plenty of other things that were involved.

Honestly, I just don't care enough to belabor a point about a guy who made one hell of an INDIVIDUAL play. I mean, really, if we're arguing that a bouncing ball is luck, technically pretty much everything is luck. Football's aren't random and that's pretty how you're presenting it.

If Carlos ever hangs onto another pick in his career I'll make sure to point how lucky he was that the ball wasn't struck by a falling blimp for about 10 pages of a thread just to piss you off.
