The Browns were awarded an additional 9 yards when Elias Sports Bureau made a scoring change Dec. 16. Elias changed what was officially registered as a 9-yard sack to an aborted play -- improving Cleveland's offensive total to 26 net yards.

Man our D sucks! :D

What the hell is an aborted play? They still lost 9 yards, didn't they? What a crock.

That IS messed up. They still count spikes that kill the clock as incompletions, don't they? See why I hate stats so much? They only tell you where you've been; not where you're going.

So Takeo loses the sack, too? When I heard this on Empire I didn't get it, and I still don't. Did they lose the yardage on the field, or did the officials move the ball back to the original line of scrimmage?

If the play set them back 9 yards, why doesn't it count?

. . . Or did the whistle blow the play dead because of a false start, TO, delay of game, or some other reason? Then we'd understand.

What a joke and humiliation they actually post this as news. I'd hide my face for weeks if I were on the Browns. Pathetic excuse for a college team...

Not to make this an MLB thread, but there's also rumor Pedro is wooing Varitek to NY...
