Did you watch that play? Did you watch it with your "I want Cleveland to be a good team" eyes or your real eyes? The referee was blowing his whistle, waving his arms, and calling the play dead before the ball was snapped. Whatever happened after that is thrown out of court. The play never happened. THEN, he watched the replay, and he MADE THE RIGHT CALL. It was not after the fact, it was not a play late or a day late or a year late.
But that's off-topic.
Anyway, I agree that college football players shouldn't be booed. MAYBE boo the coach for a decision he made. Maybe. But even then, it's hard, because if the play had worked, you'd be praising the guy. Unfortunately, I think that a lot of people think, "This is my team, and they should run it the way I want them to, or they get my boo." It's ugly, but that philosophy won't go away.
