Fuckin guy was celebrating too early. How does he not score there. Unreal.

Guy acted like a damn fool on the sidelines afterwards, too. Throwing his hands up before the Cowboys had even scored. He's awful lucky to not have fumbled that ball after holding it up on the 10 yard line.

I sure wished he would of scored. But at least it pushed. That 49er sure was fast.

Isn't it obvious?
He was on SF + 3.5

They deserve to lose more. Stupid Cowboys got lucky to win.

Everyone on Dallas should lose every penny in the long run anyway.

Pathetic coaching by harbough late.

oiler · 09-19-11, 10:50 AM

another dallas screw up to bad they didnt lose the game

No coincidences · 09-19-11, 10:50 AM

Dallas backers should just be happy Harbaugh is a fool and they got a push.

zert · 09-19-11, 10:53 AM

So it is stupid if it is the cowboys but pathetic if it is the 49ers.

On the come · 09-19-11, 11:13 AM

Would you have rather Harbaugh taken the 1st down or the points with 11 minutes to go?

VegasInsider · 09-19-11, 11:26 AM

Happy with a push after being down 10 in the 4Q and with Kitna taking the snaps. God, he's awful...

pavyracer · 09-19-11, 11:29 AM

I think the books lost big on this one because all the juicy bets got pushed.

It's almost like the guy came from a reality show....

One of these espn goofs had some kind of stat where 86% of the money was on dallas and it saved the books 72 mil out of over 100 mil. Whoever bought the hook in either direction, cashed.

sneakerhead · 09-19-11, 12:17 PM

Loved how he was celebrating even before they kicked the FG

We all know what the problem is and why he didn't score.....I shouldn't have to say it!

And for those who pushed. If you don't know by now in the NFL if you dont want to push, ALWAYS buy down to the 2.5 or up to 3.5!

But do you think Romo told the receiver in the huddle before the ball was snapped if he gets free with the ball on the long pass he should look down and find the 1 yard line and start dancing like a monkey until he gets tackled and then they will kick the FG so that the bets can push?

harlee71 · 09-19-11, 12:44 PM

Can you imagine how much that monkey would have danced if he would have actually scored?!?

I dunno. I believe its possible that over 100 mil was bet worldwide. And I believe a big majority of that money was on dallas.

MarkDee · 09-19-11, 11:59 PM

costed me $50
but I had dallas on a survivor pool so I wasn't to pissed

Sledge187 · 09-20-11, 01:01 AM

What a jerk.

Ethan · 09-20-11, 01:43 AM

Can't believe it possible

Roadtrip635 · 09-20-11, 02:09 AM

I've had the chance the last couple years to see him at the Cowboys TC's and that's why he's been on the practice squad. The guy works hard, runs decent routes, and has good hands but has no speed. Considering we were down 10 points in the 4th and a ton of injuries, I'll take the push.

Check out the box score sir. It is obvious who was the better team.

He should have "acted like he's been there before" like JoePa says. That is what's truly "cool".
