Default Did anyone catch that 9/11 reference in last nights Giants/Cowboys game?

And #43 makes his FIRST public appearance, in ALL places, at that new $1.15b stadium, doing the coin toss.

In the 1st quarter, Al Michaels made a 9/11 reference. It happened when Dallas was driving down the field to score the 1st TD. TE Martellus Bennett caught 9 yard pass, then fought for an extra 2 yds and a 1st down, and this is what Michaels said (para), "He turned a 9 yard gain into an 11 yard gain!". Now I have never heard any announcer make such an obvious reference like that, they'd usually say "It's 1st down (or in this case, 1st and Goal) after a gain of 11 yds by Bennett."

I don't get it. He made a 9 yard catch broke a tackle and gained 2 more yards, making it an 11 yard gain, which is one more yard than is needed for a 1st down as opposed to being 1 yard short.

I believe Al Michales also made a comment to "Never Forget" to watch an all new Jay Leno in primetime this week...


a sort of 'coded message' to never forget the events of 9-11...


To the causal observer its just a promo for an upcoming show...but to those who know the secrets of the new Obama-facist-nazi-socialism, founded by Muslim ACORN terrorists, this is a set of instructions.


He also made reference to the Cowboys defense 'collapsing', a clear refernece to the pancake theory and the questions surrounding building 7....

Also Bush "Flipped" a coin at the beginning of the game, two sides...one outcome...a lot like 9-11 and the sides of freedom, and terrorism.....







ding-dong

And they showed Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin who played 9 and 11 years for the Cowboys respectively.....
I'm guessing that they did but I'll play along......

What does any of this have to do with Kevin Bacon?
