Re: Merill Hoge is Pissed!!!
In all honesty he hit Weddle on the side but was to the rear of his side. "East South East" if facing forward is "North" if that makes any sense.

Re: Merill Hoge is Pissed!!!
It was a very close game, which means that close calls are going to be magnified. I am not claiming they got a big break. Just that I have seen the same play, sometimes, called a foul. It was close to a block in the back (imo) and the Ravens were fortunate to not have drawn a flag. I will gladly take it and move on to the Steelers.

Trust md that douche bag was probably so pisses after the game and that fact that the stealers lost too, he lost some sleep over it

Hoge doesn't interest me. Some I like - Jaws, Steve Young, and the NFL AM crew for the most part. The "opinion" or"spicy take" guys like Hoge and Heath Evans I think it is - some old fullback or other) I just don't watch.

Re: Merill Hoge is Pissed!!!
Makes perfect sense to me. The Stealers have a national following (combination of the Mullethead Diaspora after the steel mills went cold + granpaw bandwagoners from the 1970s + Gen-X bandwagoners from early this millenium). They are more likely to tune in to listen to commentary that panders to their prejudices. (Cf. Fox News, bka "Faux Noise.") Larger audience means the network can charge & get more for ad time, i.e., higher revenues. As with everything in the for-profit part of this society, follow the freakin' money.

Re: Merill Hoge is Pissed!!!
I believe if the blocker's head is in front of the person being blocked, then it is a legal block. At least that was how I was taught.

Re: Merill Hoge is Pissed!!!
just mentioned in another thread, they were praising the block on SiriusNFL this morning and said that was possibly the play of the year. Even Rich Gannon said it was one of the best plays he's ever seen.
