Shit, it beats the Blaine Gabbert QB non-controversy. Or where Colin Kaepernick (Philly) will land. Once again, the refs are the major back-story for a lot of disgruntled teams this last weekend. The Niners crew of Pete Morelli was dismissed from working next Sunday night’s Cowboys/Redskins game in favor of some backwater game because of their myriad fuckups last Sunday.
The NFL admitted last Tuesday that Sammy Watkins got out of bounds in the closing seconds of what turned out to be their loss to the Pats last week. What should have been a 1st down with 0:02 seconds left was instead ruled by the ref that the clock should run. Since this was the last play of the game, I guess there’s no replay allowed. Everyone runs away. This game also saw the worst call I’ve ever witnessed in my 45 years of watching football, and that was the whistle blown by the side judge DURING a play. It took a TD away from New England, and took the refs nearly 5 minutes to figure out how to fix. Which they didn’t.
The Niner game was yet another game in a litany of horribly officiated games, but we all know what happened there. I will add Bruce Arians’ comment, though regarding explanations for their multiple errors: “They were just running out of them,” he said. “It was a FUBAR on their part. They can try to explain it. They’re wrong.”
Now we get last night’s game. One where a very questionable offensive pass interference call on Gronkowski negated a 10 yard completion on a 3rd and 5 play. Seeing as this was late in the 4th quarter, this completely changed the game. Much like the phantom roughing the passer call on Quinton Dial.
If the NFL is going to keep the refs going in this manner, there will be another revolt similar to the replacement ref fiasco of 3 years ago. Look around NFL sites these days, and half the articles are about how bad the officiating is. What the NFL needs to do is either get these guys full time jobs so they can learn how to collectively and singularly do their jobs better, or put these game-changing calls under review. A couple more reviewable calls won’t change the length of games too much, and maybe these fuckers will get this shit right.
Either that, or the darker side of all the money swirling around betting, DFS, and point spreads is quietly altering games to their advantage.

It’s getting ugly out there! The Officials suck is the bitter truth. Roger the Asshole sucks. Jed the mommie boy sucks big time too. Keep the banner flying high!
What I find funny is people respond to my threads somewhere else rather than here. On Monday it was all “you never hear Beady whine about the refs.” Til he did on Tuwsday.
Believe it or not, the godawful reffing is an issue. Fans are frustrated. Chickenshits hide in their safe little bubble.
As per your SOP you make shit up to argue with always making yourself the story. Geraldo Jr., the definition of chickenshit narcissism.
Show me where Brady or Belichick blames the Patriots’ loss on the refs.
Wasn’t my point anyway. Every team gets bad calls and plenty of them lately. You can either cry about it and blame the loss on it or you can play better and win despite the variables beyond your control that get in the way of your goal.
You teach your kids to blame everyone else for their failures?
Nevermind, I’m asking the wrong guy. Of course you do.
To me the call that hurt the most was the “83” Skins game. I’m still pissed about that.
Yup. Inconsequential plays that completely changed that game.
Fuck off chickenshit.
God, for someone who apparently dodged love bullets, you act like a butt hurt girl when you post. You have the thick skin of an onion. You and Bullit are made for each other. Talk shit to everyone around you incessantly and cry like a baby when the volleys are returned. Wash!

You’re dense, fool. This is from the link you posted, supposedly to back up your claim that Brady blamed the loss on bad calls.
Brady says, ” I’m certainly not going to sit here and blame the officiating.”
All you do is rant at people who don’t follow your ever-changing line of bullshit. Could be that’s why no one posts here anymore. Watching you rail at the facts is just not the fun it used to be.
Ow. That hurts. What will I do?
Well, I don’t whine like a 5 year old. There’s the diff between you and me.
I’m so glad that you and your little minions over at the Alex-Smith-Is-god/I-hate-Kappy site get so much enjoyment reading my stuff. Too bad you are scared to post though.
The point of my post was that you always respond to my shit over on Skeebs site, not here. What is one to think? You draw the conclusion.
Good bad or indifferent, it is chickenshit, since skeebie can’t take differing viewpoints like mine.
“How it all played out, I guess I was just pretty pissed off, at obviously the final outcome, just how the last 20 minutes of the game played out.”
Can you discern the point of that statement by Tom Terrific, NoFear? Of course not. It doesn’t fit your literal interpretation of what Brady said. As usual, you have no nuance in your demeanor. You are all black and white. Like a 5 year old.
Who’s misrepresenting? Where do I say Brady is blaming the refs on the loss? I said ha complained about the job they did.
The usual obfuscation from you.
Classy to bring up my kids as well, chicken hawk. Go back to the safety of Skeeberland where the Donald is a beacon of sanity.
Anyhow, back to reality. Does anyone think the clamor will be loud enough for Jolly Roger to do something about it?
While they are at it, they need to change the Byzantine rules on what constitutes a catch.
Tiger retired today. Kobe is finally calling it quits. “Constant Fear” is trying to find a personality over at Skeeber’s Asylum for the Mentally deranged. Perhaps Bullit will fix him up with Bakkentom’s winning charm.
Kobe is trashing his teammates and shooting 30% from the field, and 21% on 3s.
He may bail at the all star break. What a tool.
Entitlement is a strange thing, the Lakers have blanketed and protected him for years. I’ve come to believe that people don’t really change, their abilities and priorities change but once your character is cemented it’s always there inside somewhere.
Yeah, and Nick Young sits on the bench at Kobe’s expense, and Byron Scott keeps saying he’ll never bench Kobe. Guess he wants LSU’s Ben Simmons. Well, whoever the next coach is will enjoy that.
I think the race to obscurity will come down to the 76ers and the Lakers. Double digit wins may elude both teams. 8-74? Fun.
New thread is up.
