<p>I used to dig these snippets they had during the commericals in a game where they show a play and ask what would you call, and if it was what the ref actually called.</p><p>I don't think they have them anymore, but they should.&nbsp;</p>

I believe that it was &quot;AT&amp;T presents you make the call.&quot;&nbsp; Either way, I miss them too.&nbsp; &quot;If you chose back field in motion, you made the right call.&quot;

I remember it. I think it was narrated by the NFL Films guy.

<p>I think one of the reasons they aren't around is because people have a much better understanding of the NFL rules, and also, instant replays and multiple cameras make things much more conclusive than the late 80's footage they used before.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Wasn't one of the Fumble by the Giants?</p><p>I think the options was kneel down on the ball or hand-off.&nbsp;</p>
