CHICKENSHIT!!!

"The play at the end, the call by the officials ... It's flat-out chickenshit, all right? It's a flat-out chickenshit call by that crew, by 95, especially, James (Coleman, the side judge) whatever his last name is. It's a bad call because we took exactly the same play that Atlanta ran trying to block the winning field goal against New England last week and we ran that against them. They didn't call it last week, so I'm telling you it's a flat-out chickenshit call. It was the same exact play that Atlanta ran against New England to block their winning field goal. We are pulling the guy to the outside. You're allowed to pull as long as you're going forward. We pulled to get Jason Craft through. We took the play from Atlanta. Atlanta ran it last week against New England and [the officials] didn't call it last week. And again, I'll say it's a chickenshit call.''

-- New Orleans coach Jim Haslett, after his team was called for defensive holding on a missed 41-yard field goal by Atlanta in a 31-31 game with two seconds left. After the five-yard markoff, Todd Peterson made the winning 36-yard field goal at the gun to give the Falcons a 34-31 win.

That remark will probably cost Haslett 20 G's, but the man definantly knows chickenshit when he see it.
