Upon further review.....
http://s32.postimg.org/9lu4o6w6d/1_Untitled.jpg
as you can see by the replay footage, the center of the ball was clearly at the 33 yard line at the end of the previous punt return.
a couple of incomplete passes later, the center of the ball should still be at the 33 yard line.
Now... since a football is 11" long, and not 6 feet long as depicted (for replay reasons) we can conclude the the tip of the ball was at the 33 yard, 5.5 inch line.
so the actual distance the ball traveled was in fact 66 yards, and 31.5 inches (given of course that a yard is 36 inches)
as a result...
The ruling on the forum is overturned.
The play is in point of fact over 66.5 yards, and therefore an infraction will not be assessed.

Has anyone seen (meaning watched) a QB throw a pass over 50 yards here in GLB? This does not include yards after making the catch.
This one from Season 51 is over 50 yards in the air: http://glb.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2786466&pbp_id=1062000
