Argentina 1986 World Cup "Hand of God" goal.

Greg Louganis put AIDS blood in the pool in 1988 and wasn't DQ'd.

You should learn the rules. James tried to slip in front of Woolley to make the tackle and Woolley ended up just pushing him down. That’s far from an illegal block.

Now where are the other “illegal blocks” since you said there were multiple?

All those are clean as hell.

I mean good lord, they held warner, blindside blocks, tackled a player out of bounds on the run back. Missing one of those, okay it happens, but there are no less than 3 clear penalties and I stopped counting.

You clearly didn't watch it, crackback at :13 and block in the back at :16. Steeler bandwagon nation will never ever sniff another ring with Burrow in Cinci though so it's all good

The Kansas City Royals in 85 also come to mind.

You can argue that the Patriots might have been aided by playing Los Angeles in the Super Bowl, but even that argument is a bit weak because New Orleans did not prove they were a considerably better team.

If you want to argue that the Rams won the NFC title game on a terrible call, sure.

2002 Lakers vs Kings was the most blatant fixed game I’ve ever seen. It wasn’t a single call. It was over and over.

Well how did last year go? One team went 13-3 again. The other one didn't even make the playoffs.

This not only led them to a championship, but also led the two teams involved in this postseason to leave their cities years later.
