The Refs and this “rigged” league

[frostbitmic]

I watched three games Sunday and all three were flag fests, and all three games the Officials were dreadful. So it wasn't so much a Bills issue, though the other two games at least seemed to be equally bad for both teams. The NFL Officiating has been bad for years and seems to get worse every year.

 

Look at this  Granderson roughing the passer penalty in the Giants /Saints game just to prove my point.

 

 

 

 

In a league so closely associated with gambling, they need to do better on the officiating end than they are.

I understand, but then you have the issue of what is “blatant”?   I think if you look at all 22 players on the field you can find “blatant” infractions more than you think. 

Just never mind !!

No, I’m not, you’ve lost the argument. Did anybody cry when old yeller died? Did women cry at the end of steel magnolias? Do people get upset at comedians? You can think things are fixed and Still get upset at the result. So go ahead and keep speaking . It’s like talking to a wall.

Sounds like the staged wrestling is a big part of your life. Carry on.

Today’s NFL fan for ya. Every loss is a fix, but every win is legit.

So , you have met Us then 😋

 

It's about the journey Saul .

 Right after Bills win the SB , or around the draft. We will return to our snarky selves. 

 Bills are a great story these days, just glad we have a lot to discuss this season again !

 Go Bills

As for the Hoculi being corrupt. I think he just hates the Bills. p=0.012 is very strong evidence that something is up. We feed kids new medicines on far less. It also is consistent with "the eye test." I rarely complain about refs. There a couple these days that make me wince, but Hoculi and his dad are just in their own awful tier.

 

I can't see him being on the take for the Eagles and against the Bills over the course of years. I think he's just personally biased.

Its a Josh thing. Ed feels small next him. In so many ways. Is Ed married still ? Was she hot ?  lol

jk Ed

It's all about commercial time, keep the game close by flagging the better team. You hang in there till the end and buy a Swanson TV dinners and a new Buick.

That’s one of the worst no calls I’ve seen since the Saints didn’t go to the Super Bowl. It does make you wonder how it could be THAT BAD. Did they not correct that call? What was he supposed to do? That’s crazy to me. 

 

The NFL is slowly following the NBA into obscurity for me.

no. I should of added "do we believe everything we see on the internet" as you can see both contradict one another.

 

 

this is what Sean actually said...

They did not reverse the call,  calls like that make me wonder sometimes.

I’m not a conspiracy theory guy, but I’m also not a fan of the excuse that we’re not crooked, we are just totally incompetent.

It’s that bad because of what the refs got away with after that Saints PI no call…. All of the coach challenges that were denied even though everyone with eyes could see what happened. Couple that with the league capitulating to the ref union after that Packers/Seahawks replacement ref game and…. Unchecked egos from the officials and support of the owners.

Full disclosure, I was never a baseball fan because it’s too slow for me personally. I would have a Braves game on in the background sometimes, but it was mostly white noise to me. I stopped even doing that back when they had “confusion” about the strike zone. The Ump does not decide the strike zone. It should not be different from guy to guy. I’d have an electronic strike zone before putting up with their arrogance. That’s just my way of looking at life. I don’t need to appease anyone’s ego. I also avoid the NBA like it’s my job. Same reason.

From the media? On the internet? I don’t think that is possible. I read it, so it must be true.

Is it just me or were the multiple procedure calls for the WR not being on the line of scrimmage a bit nitpicky.  Kelce lines up there more often than not to give him a step before he gets jammed at the LOS, he rarely gets called
