I can't believe this is a discussion. Sorry if already posted, I didn't see it.

Impolite to point out that the Dallas D gave up a TD in OT?

[Susquehanna Birder]

1. He clearly said tails.
2. If he said heads, and it was tails, Witten would have made a fuss.
3. He clearly said tails, but I suppose it sounds like "heads" through all the whining noises.

[Riccardo]

Haha I voted heads

Best part was a comment: "screwed again by the refs!". Hilarious

Witten was the only team 'leader' with any balls to stick around and talk to the media so I'm sure he would have raised the issue then. Apparently team 'leaders' Coach Dez and Hit 'em Hardy dressed quickly and left. This Cowturds squad might be the biggest dung heap yet...

He said "tails" before the coin hit the ground. Pretty clearly. I don't get it.

[headknocker]

Even I heard it clear as day and my hearing sucks from the 100+ concerts I've attended.

The Ref asks what the call is (heads or Tails) before he even flips the coin.

[JuTMSY4]

correct

The Ref asks what the call is (heads or Tails) before he even flips the coin.

The whole point of asking before hand (and then confirming) is to avoid this issue a la Jerome Bettis.

[Squire]

Makes perfect sense. Hochuli called 6 straight penalties on the Eagles just to set up screwing the Cowboys in the OT on the nationally broadcast coin toss.

Krikeys...did you see Hochuli when he had to overturn the non-fumble and let the Eagles keep the ball? He was practically weeping.

[Speed_Kills]

Hochuli was never sadder than when he had to turn his mic on and over turn the R Matthews (non) fumble. He's a joke.
