I like to call it the Green Zone — it's where you cash in.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Love to see what Foster could do on reverse or double-everse, those long lanky legs get a lot of miles on a gallon

Lovely catch by Gore to keep us close to TD territory

Was that even legal? I thought you weren't allowed to throw once you crossed LOS as he seemed to do, even if you retreat back over it (which he would have done there).

Harris is a smart player, without fear. He got away with it.
