Did anyone else hear this over the weekend? I believe it was in the Bills/Raiders game, near the beginning of the game. Referee gets on the mike to explain a false start penalty -
"False start...everyone but the center. 5 yard penalty, repeat 1st down."
My roommates and I have been joking about it all weekend; we thought it was hilarious.

I may be wrong, but I think that the reason for this is the league told referees to identify players on all penalties this year.
