Dirrell's twitching leg, an artistic flourish?

    Here's my question. Andre is sitting on one knee and gets popped. He's wasn't looking at the punch. Home crowd in Detroit, thousands of fans supporting him.

    He's wily, though. Despite dominating the fight, he decides "hey, I'll pretend that I got knocked out and hope the ref rules in my favor. Brilliant!"

    Then, Andre is thinking, all in the blink of an eye, "hey, I know, I'll twitch my legs uncontrollably so people think I'm possibly going to die! Brilliant!"

    The above is, in effect, what the "Andre is acting" crowd expect you to believe. It wasn't enough to simply lie there for Andre. Andre wanted people to think he might be dead, just so he could be super-duper-sure he'd get the DQ call form the ref. Refs are swayed, you know, by leg-twitching.

    Now, I propose that anybody that believes the above has a IQ sub 90 and is also prone to conspiracy theories and almost certainly is a 9/11 truther.

    ha...i was just reading a short story by fred dryer about conrad dobler in a playoff game against the rams...and how nice merlin olsen was even after dobler was using every dirty tactic in the book trying to block him....apparently olsen went into the cards huddle during a tv timeout and said "cmon connie yer better than that"...
