Yeah, and how do you think I felt back then? This pic pretty much sums up where the refs were in that game:

This game was fine from what I saw though. And I wanted the Steelers to win since the Cardinals have never done so before, and they're in the same division as the Seahawks.

However, when Roethlisberger dove for the touchdown this time, it got called back. I actually though he got it this time. A far cry from Super Bowl XL:

The ball did not cross the line. But what was the final call?

This has happened to the Hawks before too, which I clearly remember:

2. Vinny Testaverde's TD (121 letters)

I am a lifelong Jets fan with many remembrances of officiating gone awry (Keyshawn no-TD call vs. Redskins in '96, anyone?), but it is one that was in their favor that I will remember as the worst I have seen.

Against the Seattle Seahawks in the 1998-99 season, Vinny Testaverde was ruled in the end zone after running a quarterback sneak on the last play of the game to give the J-E-T-S the win, but clearly he was down more than a foot from the goal line before he stretched out his arms to get the TD call. The Jets go on to win their division and get to the AFC championship, while the loss keeps the Seaducks out of the playoffs. After the season, the Jets then vote for instant replay... go figure.

Vinny dived for the end zone and fell far short. Phil Luckett ruled it a touchdown. Said the officials afterward, "We mistook his helmet for the football."

This comes from ESPN's Page 2 series, in the reader's choice of worst calls in sports history. I see I'm not the only one who remembered this travesty.
