Great story -- thanks for sharing.
Question, on the crap mark by the official on Gurley's 2nd & 8 run, did the Haw fans else around you recognize it for the clusterfck it was? It was so blatant that I can't imagine it didn't go unnoticed by the hometown fans. Did they happen to recognize their good fortune about a whole bunch of calls -- and non-calls, in the case of Brandon Cooks? On TV, there appeared to be no cheering by the home town fans after the ref signaled that the Hawks had recovered Cooks's fumble after the hit -- presumably because everybody in the stadium (except the Stevie Wonder refs) knew the hit was illegal and that the fumble wouldn't stand.
