The Dropkicks is a rugby podcast and sports blog site illuminating your path through the murky world of international rugby, league, cricket, football, baseball, motorsports, golf, netball and competitive eating.
We've all felt, at some stage or another, that our favourite team has been cheated out of a win - almost as though the powers that be, whether they are referees, the sporting body, or the broadcaster, had complete control of the match. And not just when you watch WWE wrestling.
This next clip takes that premise, applies it to the Superbowl, and runs with it.
Yes, it's that time of the year. The NFL kicks off today with the Titans playing the defending champion Steelers. But here's an unrelated video of an inbred little boy playing his first game.
17 years on, and he's turned into an incredible douche, playing for his first team's traditional rivals, and performing illegal [and possibly career-ending] blocks.
San Diego Chargers cornerback Antonio Cromartie returned a missed field goal 109 yards for a touchdown as the first half ended Sunday at Minnesota - the longest play in NFL history.
The previous record for longest play was 108 yards, missed field goal returns, shared by Chicago teammates Devin Hester and Nathan Vasher and a kickoff return by New England's Ellis Hobbs.
Cromartie caught the ball at the dead-ball line, so the play may be the longest possible in the game.
