#RIP #BobTrumpy ... Right you are - an outstanding duo during a time when the networks had very few weak links on their NFL crews! https://x.com/OfficialMLBRFC…

#NFL Bad officiating, you say. Hold my beer...

"As bungled a call as I've ever seen."

Call by #DonCriqui & #BobTrumpy

1988 AFC Wild Card #Oilers at #Browns

At 1h38m15s HOU runs a play and CLE recovers a dropped backwards pass from Warren Moon at the HOU 5 yard line and walks it into the End Zone.

Bob Trumpy goes absolutely bonkers at Jerry Seeman's call on the play.

It takes 5 minutes before the next play is run and there is no commercial break during that span.
