January 19, 2002 the Patriots beat the Oakland Raiders in what will forever be known as the "tuck rule" game. Chances are good that you are quite familiar with that game and the ruling. As a Patriots fan I am always reminded of it whenever I read the comments to an article about the Patriots. No matter how egregious a call is against the Patriots, and there have been many, trolls will always bring up the "tuck rule". While the following will probably not stop a troll from trolling, they do make you realize how long ago it was.
