[QUOTE="Bruce, post: 105081, member: 196"] Even a blind zebra could tell that was not pass interference. He made a clean play and it was a key play in the game. If that is interference they may as well make CB's wear dresses and skirts, because that was simply very good defense -- and as far as I know that has not been outlawed completely by the NFL. Ryan, that was an opinion piece that was not written by Carrol: "Fourth, and not to be taken lightly, is the adjustment for an African-American growing up in Atlanta to moving to and living in Green Bay. It's a culture shock to put it mildly — and it doesn't help when the hometown fans are booing you." There is no race card in that paragraph. It is an adjustment and culture shock and it is not easy for a 20 year old to get booed by his team's fans (regardless of race). I don't agree with much from the opinion piece, but that paragraph was not Carroll offering excuses, nor was it any kind of stretch from quite obvious facts. [/QUOTE]
