	why don't you just put these in order?.... mixing them up makes no sense.

Comment below threshold: show it

	Incomplete pass or no good would involve movement of the arms, that stationary stance is unsportsmanlike conduct.

	t_rock:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 05:41 GMT	4 points
	six could also be illegal touching or illegal use of hands

	cocky:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 08:24 GMT	2 points
	I know the facemask call but couldn't tell it from that picture. Not the quizmasters' fault, but a front view would have been better.

	terminatorX:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 12:04 GMT	7 points
	actually i think in 9 he's just proclaiming "YES!!!"

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 12:20 GMT	2 points
	There's no reason to not put these in order.

	DMwahoo:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 13:44 GMT	1 point
	Gah I hate holding.. of course it's the most guessed. Good quiz!

	nomuny12:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 14:28 GMT	1 point
	It's penalties. Sorry that just bothered me.

	bsd987:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 15:50 GMT	1 point
	6 can be other things. And this should not be random order.

	celtic_fc:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 16:24 GMT	13 points
	is the picture from #9 a hockey ref?

	candyman81cb:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 17:04 GMT	0 points
	agree with GPB. I thought number 8 was indicating this much until first down marker

	Kicking222:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 17:08 GMT	1 point
	I absolutely REFUSE to do this quiz until both the questions and the order in which you have to answer them are corrected. It's impossible to do a quiz when you have to scroll up and down without even knowing which question you need to answer (or which one is coming next). Fix it, and this might get a 5 from me; until then, this gets a 1 for being unplayable. And yes, celtic, #9 IS an ice hockey ref... but why?

	Lumbee09:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 17:11 GMT	5 points
	12 can also be illegal substitution (too many men on field). That's just as common if not more common than ineligible man down field.

	shoesler:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 17:50 GMT	0 points
	accept ineligible receiver for 12 - illegal motion for 2 - and grounding for 8. and i think 15 could also be tripping, like when an o-lineman trips a d-lineman.

	ammizny:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 18:11 GMT	2 points
	"Illegal contact" should also be acceptable for #6. It's a similar motion to holding, but with the hand facing outward. That looks like what #6 is to me.

	aruss:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 18:14 GMT	1 point
	sweeeeeeet quiz.

	AdamWest:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 18:44 GMT	4 points
	Why is #9 a hockey referee?

	Lenard:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	-1 points
	These pictures are a little fuzzy, and #11 really should be incomplete pass or missed fieldgoal. #9, the hand should be facing towards the face and pulling down, and football referees don't wear helmets.

	MattCortese:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 19:38 GMT	1 point
	One more thing. Some of the pictures and numbers weren't even coming up. They just disappeared for some reason.

	simo:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 19:58 GMT	2 points
	incomplete passes and missed field goals are not penalties

	brianmcp:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 20:26 GMT	2 points
	I have no idea what penalty that ref would be calling in hockey ..

	vdubb:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 21:57 GMT	0 points
	Ok, so just because it's still facemasking doesn't mean I should be watching a college hockey ref do it. While yes #6 is Illegal block in the back it is also illegal contact in the NFL and illegal use of hands and arms in high school football. All should be acceptable responses.

	rcamps:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 22:21 GMT	2 points
	call me old fashioned, but I still call #6 clipping.

	nickvas:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 01:44 GMT	2 points
	get some better pictures please

	Sporctastic:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 02:51 GMT	1 point
	Why are both your numbers and the order randomized? Just make it in order and make everyone's life easier. There is not reason to have it in the format you have it. Good idea though.

	jam_fan10:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 02:55 GMT	1 point
	how is this 2 stars..i really liked it ..i gave a 5

	goblue9123:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 03:07 GMT	5 points
	What? No signal for "giving him the business"?

	davidhwillis:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 13:57 GMT	1 point
	good quiz, but probably too much time. Could be completed in 3 minutes.

	mrmaryland:	Dec 21st, 2009 at 02:38 GMT	1 point
	make one for roughing the passer

	Ibarez:	May 26th, 2010 at 04:25 GMT	2 points
	Why is this rated only two globes? Some of the images are a bit hard to see, but I liked it.

	schumatrix:	May 26th, 2010 at 05:38 GMT	1 point
	Illegal contact shouldn't be accepted for #6. The NFL signal for illegal contact is one hand facing palm-out without the other hand grabbing it like that. The only acceptable answers for that should be illegal hands to the face or illegal block in the back.

	houserulz:	May 26th, 2010 at 17:37 GMT	1 point
	For 13 - The signal for illegal shift is with both hands. The signal for illegal motion is just with one hand.

	PatrickH:	May 26th, 2010 at 22:05 GMT	4 points
	This quiz is too Raiders-centric. ;-)

	DarkPassenger:	Oct 27th, 2010 at 15:44 GMT	3 points
	I think the Cowboys fans should know all of these by heart this season.....I will accept your negative vote now.

	pete32782:	Apr 7th, 2011 at 23:33 GMT	1 point
	Where's the signal for "unnecessary lockout"?

	Viccolonello:	May 26th, 2011 at 07:07 GMT	1 point
	Shouldnt've taken this one out of season.
