Power outage at the SuperDome. Must be some disgruntled 49er fan :wink:

Maybe the NFL's way to implement a mercy rule. The young tennis player trick in Australia maybe where she ran off faking something and came back and won a championship trick? They knew and they remembered how long it takes to get stadium lights back on after Lui Passaglia's big honour in the last game???

The opening KO of the 2nd half and Baltimore do the completely unexpected and run the KO back 108 yds is a sign that SF collectively were just happy to get there but the Raven players want to win.

I am working and the game in online on my other PC and I almost didn't bother looking at the kick off as I can't stand the KO and punting system in the NFL where you don't get run backs but that TD was a beauty.

this game is looking like the 100th GC and that kick return was a real piece of Gizmo Williams

The next time someone you know uses the phrase 'bush league' to describe the CFL, remind them of this debacle.

Can you imagine all the snide remarks in the media if this had happened during the Grey Cup?

Can you imagine the embarrassment to the NFL given the world wide audience and their premier event of the year ?

I think the SF 49ers did this. ONLY the stadium had an outage and even the street lights outside were on. CONSPIRACY. It has worked and now it is a game!!!!

We didn't have in the CFL but the Lui Passaglia final game had 22 minutes of lights out where they dimmed the lights in the 4thQ vs Riders and it showed in red letters ..."Luv ya Lui 5" on the roof followed by the naked streaker and a disputed Lui TD that had the Riders really p...d off as they felt he didn't run it in and that was the winning TD.

Amazing turnaround. SF is in this game despite their FG kicker.
