(S32) PT 5 - Bad Call

[Yeenoghu]

The first game that came to mind was Week 9 of Season 30, where the game was influenced by a bad no call. In the second quarter, Tugg Speedman caught a 22-yard touchdown pass from Sam Howitzer to extend the Silverbacks lead over the Butchers to 8. However, the touchdown should have been nullified due to Speedman's obvious taunting of the defense during the course of play prior to him breaking the plane of the end zone. The missed call did not change the outcome of the game as the Silverbacks would go on to win by a margin of 35, but it did leave an indelible mark on an otherwise mundane game. Much to the chagrin of the Butchers organization, the highlight has been frequently played in the community and is a top search result when looking for ISFL-related material online. For those unacquainted with the play, it can be seen in its original broadcast definition below.
