Well, people went over the replay of Parkey's Field Goal miss in yesterday's/Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, and through a fine-tooth comb it has been determined that an Eagles player, Defensive Tackle Treyvon Hester, got a finger on the ball before it hit off the left upright and crossbar and not through the goalposts. Furthermore, even though I don't think it's conclusive, the National Football League determined that Hester's touch was enough to alter the trajectory of Parkey's kick, and therefore it officially will go down in the record books as a blocked kick, not a miss.
So, double good news for the Chicago Bears Kicker, even though they are still eliminated from the playoffs: He should stop getting crap from Bears fans, and I now retract his Poor Bastard Of The Moment.
