so in an attempt to get the last word in, you critized someone else if they try to get the last word in?


My "last word" wasn't a last word, it was the evidence provided by the link (exhibit A if you will) that proved it even though he continues to talk without watching it....

Therefore that was the proof needed and should have been the end of the debate. His continued uneducated responses are unnecessary and provide no substance to the topic and therefore are simply to "get the last word in."

So then we're both wrong and you just contradicted your entire point. I thought Devery was the one that juggled it. Maybe he wasn't. Either way, the play was complete luck. If YOU can't admit that, then you are just as bad as the people you claim are foolish. Skill, speed, concentration, blah, blah, blah. He was in the right place at the right time, which is the case with most hail mary passes you will see.


No, we're not both wrong. You cannot respond after admitting you didn't watch it, and then have a conclusion about what concurred!!

Again, you spew out uneducated information without watching it and reviewing what a spectacular play it was that requires LUCK AND SKILL (tipped to self, avoided defenders, etc).

Look, the topic is dead.

Agree to disagree, but I think when you watch it and see that it was tipped off of Clayton, and Henderson was able to reach out and barely tip it to himself (not bobble it as originally claimed) and then make an amazing maneuver between two defenders (who likely were in shock at the time) that you would back down on being so sure of what you remember 5 or so years ago.

I admitted there was luck involved, and of course he was in the right place at the right time. Yes, that is required in a hail mary. That was never the dispute. The dispute was that he "bobbled it." The link proves it. End of debate. No reason to distract everyone from the original debate to say you were right and "blah blah blah." Again, it just makes you look more foolish.

The whole point of this is that the original poster was right. Due to Devery's catching woes in the NFL, that catch seems even more spectacular. And secondly, he did not bobble it, but reached out and tipped it into his grasp where he ran for a TD.

I provided all the evidence you need there in that link. No reason to say I contradicted myself, especially when you haven't seen it yet

Agree to disagree, we agree that lsu and Saints are going to roll on everybody this year so let's leave it at this

Sorry about the immature name calling. I take it back.

my conclusion was based on the fact that YOU said YOU watched and that Clayton tipped the ball to Devery, in which WE ARE BOTH WRONG. I said Devery bobbled it, you said he tipped it to himself in a great play. We were both wrong if Clayton tipped him the ball!

So after watching the clip, it looks to me like a Kentucky defender tipped it and not Clayton. I can't really tell whether Devery even tipped the ball or not. It looked, from that angle and choppy video, that it was tipped by a defender and caught by Devery. I'll try to find some better video, but that may prove difficult.

But in the end, I do agree with at least one thing you said...

No, you still don't get it. Clayton (or somebody) tipped it then Devery either tipped it to himself or whatever you want to call it - he never bobbled it.

What I said still stands. How can you dispute this still?

Devery never bobbled it! It was partially deflected and he was able to reach out and just barely get a piece of it and then he hauled it in.

I am not disputing it was luck or anything else argued. I am just pointing out he never bobbled it like you claimed and that it was a poor example of his dropsies. It was an amazing catch that required luck and skill.

None of this is necessary....when's kickoff to 2008?
