Dolphin fan here.Saban should have done more to get the attention of the ref, especially because he waited so long to throw it in the first place. If he would have thrown it 15 seconds earlier than the gripe would make sense.

Thats not the deal, The deal is to get the flag on the field before the ball is snapped regardless of getting attention to a ref. The ref should have been around the area expecting a possible attempt at a flag being thrown in that situation..

Are you serious? Why would they expect a flag to be thrown? They called the play like they saw it. Yes it was from a bad angle but can you please imagine what would happen if a ref was out of position for the extra point attempt and his reasoning was..."I was waiting for a challenge flag from the sideline" He'd be fired!

How many refs do you think there are? lol Ive alwyas seen refs right there near the sideline, This ref was out in the middle of it.

It doesn't matter how many refs there are. Each one has a specific responsibility on every play and that doesn't include getting out of position to look for a challenge flag.Wow, you really need to wake up.

So i suppose when all the refs are busy with their responsiblitys as you call it they dont care about a challenge flag because its not important. That would mean then that challenge flags are only allowed if a ref happens to be in the vacinity of it when it fell. Otherwise it just dont matter that one is thrown. Your a real dandy. You bore me to death

I bore you to death because you can't deal with the reality of rules of the NFL. Saban screwed up. Deal with it.

I read on Miami Today web site, a reporter was told the flag got stuck on his wedding band...problem is he is divorce last 2 years.

Horse####. He didn't want to really challenge it and was smart enough that he didn't want to explain to all the reporters afterwards why he didn't challenge it. So he purposely waited until the last second and made a half-assed attempt at throwing the flag. Smart move if he didn't really want to challenge it. But I still think he should have challenged it.

Do you believe every thing you read...I'm only the messenger..not the reporter!

So now its a rule refs dont look for challenge flags.

You're pathetic! I was referring to your comment that the ref should have ignored his responsibility he's assigned to for the extra point attempt and instead looked for a challenge flag.

Again, please tell us why the ref should have ignored his responsibility on the field but instead should have been expecting a challenge flag to be thrown? Using your logic means that they should expect a challenge flag on EVERY PLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wasn't doubting the story. Sorry. I think that he did not want to challenge the play, but did not want to answer questions about it. So he threw it late and poorly, and then tells reporters later that it got stuck in his ring. He'd make a good politician.
