Good stuff like this deserves more attention, but most people prefer to ##### than applaud. Sad, but true.

McCarthy has definitely shown tons of class throughout this debacle. Very impressive.

The f Wayne Elliot in the link made me laugh, though. That's pretty much how I feel about the guy.

Also classy:

Asked if he would stick by his call after seeing the replay, Elliott said: "I'd probably call interception. I learned a rule by screwing up the rule."

Wayne Elliott didn't make the call-he was the one who announced the booth review.

Refs in that situation-dual reception/int will call it differently. Have you ever seen

pass interference on a hail mary?

I wonder how the lunatic fringe around here would spin this one. Anyway, very classy by both parties here.

I find this more interesting...

Elliott said that during training he remembered being told that "you don't really call interference on a Hail Mary. ... You just let it go."

No. ESPN looked into it and pi had never been called on a hail mary iirc.
