Would you have brought Jamaal back in for a short TD?

"It didn't happen though," Jamaal continued. "Everything happens for a reason."

Bullshit like that makes records meaningless. If Charles stays in the game and scores another touchdown, that's awesome. If he's out of the game but comes in to score a short yardage touchdown because he's the best they've got at the goal line and they need a touchdown, that's awesome too.

But for another player to lay down so that Charles or anyone else can get an easy shot at a record is a travesty. It's bullshit. If it were up to me I'd throw a penalty flag for unsportsmanlike conduct when the touchdown was scored, and I'd eject Charles and Davis from the game.

It's like when Bret Favre laid down so that Michael Strahan could get an easy sack to break the sack record. That was bogus, it was bullshit, and it made me a Bret Favre hater before it was fashionable to hate him.
