I don't know if this is the title of the episode but it's the one where the the whole gang played football on Thanksgiving. Towards the end, Ross and Monica disagreed as to whether the snap was before or after the buzzer went off. The scene went by fast and I want to know who was right. Thanks!

That would be TOW The Football (3-09, I think). I'm sorry, I don't recall the outcome of the argument though. I'd have to look through the transcript, but I don't have time right now. If this post is still unanswered after work, I'll look it up.

that one is on the best of friends series, and has previously unreleased footage. they never really did say who was right.

Which storyline are you talking about-Joey/Chandler or Ross & Monica? Because I think with the whole Gellar cup thing we were supposed to think both of them were being ridiculous. Even with the Joey and Chandler storyline, fighting over the Dutch woman, arguments could be made for both sides. It's left open on purpose.

Is this the episode where Joey says something like "Was 'egg the Gellar's' the war cry of your neighborhood?"

Or did Joey never say that ever, and I just made it up??

Yes, Joey did say this in that eppy. He also said "There must be a special place in heaven for people who hung out with you in highschool". Halarious!!!

Gellar's'

It's being replayed tonight ... it actually came from "TOW The Race Car Bed" 307

[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, the whole gang is there including Janice, they' re watching Happy Days.]

ROSS: Hey. When you guys were kids and you played Happy Days, who were you? I was always Richie.

MONICA: I was always Joanne.

JOEY: Question. Was ah, 'Egg the Gellers!' the war cry of your neighbourhood?

My bad.

Phoebe: Touchdown!! Touchdown!!

Ross: Uh, hello, the buzzer buzzed. It doesn't count.

Monica: After the snap!

Ross: Before the snap!

Joey: After!!

Chandler: Before!!

Rachel: Now, does it really matter?

All: Yes!!

Phoebe: Well, okay, I made a touchdown. It was my first touchdown. So?

Ross: Oh Pheebs, that's great. It doesn't count.

Monica: Does so count!

Ross: Cheater, cheater, compulsive eater.

Phoebe: Oh my God!

Monica: Y'know what, that's fine, maybe you haven't grown up, but I have.

Ross: Oh-ho, okay.

Monica: Dead leg!! (kicks him in the thigh.)

Ross: Ow! Ow! Okay, okay, fine, fine! All right, you wanna win by
      cheating, go ahead, all right. Phoebe the touchdown does count,
      you win.

Phoebe: Woo-yay!!

Monica: No! Listen, I'm not gonna go through this with you again,
        okay. Just once I wanna beat when you can't blame it on the
        broken nose, the buzzer, or the fact that you thought you were
        getting mono. Let's just call this, tie score and it's
        halftime.

Ross: Okay, first of all, I don't play with cheaters, and second of all, you know I had swollen glands!!

Monica: Y'know what? I'll think you'll play.

Does this help?
