A day later I’m really not understanding the “arm was limp” argument. Herb checked, Robbie proved he was conscious and cognizant and then it was stopped. If he stopped it immediately after Robbie dropped his arm I think it would of been a much more understandable call, but it’s just sad that Lawler has an L on his record from that. It’s like John said here, sometimes the refs need to be held accountable and questioned about the finish. Herb was clearly apologetic immediately after he called it.
