That was the right call. "Union" has nothing to do with it. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 25/09/2012 11:37:39 AM
But now, with the Packers getting jobbed on Monday Night Football, the refs have cost a team the game. yeah, the regular refs might have made the same mistake, the basis of all your arguments has been that the refs haven't cost anyone a game yet. Now they have, in egregious, embarrassing form.
That was not the basis of MY argument, which was that the real officials are not better and do it all the time. That's why I included links to gratuitous errors by the real officials.

But you are out of excuses. As of now.
The fuck I am. That was the rule. It might be one of those unique kinds of situation that slides past in defiance of common sense, but it's no different than the Tuck Rule play (except it didn't happen in the playoffs).

A good point regarding the replacement officials Cannoli - 24/09/2012 02:55:12 PM 867 Views
You must not be watching the games Dark Knight - 24/09/2012 05:09:20 PM 427 Views
"still doesn’t understand how timeouts or challenges work. Advantage: replacement refs." REALLY?! Joel - 24/09/2012 07:21:41 PM 558 Views
You see what you did, Cannoli? You made me agree with Joel *NM* Dark Knight - 24/09/2012 07:41:02 PM 160 Views
Only fair; you and rt made me agree with Cannoli in the Eli vs. Romo threads. Joel - 24/09/2012 11:35:22 PM 505 Views
And here's a straight-up "caused one team to be able to win" situation: Jragghen - 24/09/2012 09:39:33 PM 631 Views
"it's a basic expectation of any referee to maintain an accurate line of scrimmage." Joel - 24/09/2012 11:43:06 PM 597 Views
And there you have it. (Monday Night Football update.) Dannymac - 25/09/2012 05:18:37 AM 414 Views
That was the right call. "Union" has nothing to do with it. Cannoli - 25/09/2012 11:37:39 AM 531 Views
why the union comments at the end of your post if it had nothing to do with your argument? moondog - 25/09/2012 03:38:28 PM 421 Views
It was a sideline from the major point and not my motivation, as Dannymac insinuates. Cannoli - 25/09/2012 04:09:48 PM 418 Views
No, it was not. And yes, it does. Dannymac - 25/09/2012 05:11:52 PM 358 Views
^This +1,000,000 *NM* Dark Knight - 25/09/2012 05:20:51 PM 203 Views
The replay officals are not replacements. Maybe Rodgers just isn't a clutch QB *NM* random thoughts - 25/09/2012 11:44:29 AM 187 Views
Hmm? Dannymac - 25/09/2012 05:01:26 PM 391 Views
He was being sarcastic. See our earlier posts about Romo and Eli Manning *NM* Dark Knight - 25/09/2012 05:21:16 PM 162 Views
Like DK I was being a smart ass random thoughts - 25/09/2012 06:17:12 PM 395 Views
Maybe Rodgers should have played at his apparent high level of play the entire game. *NM* callandor1000 - 26/09/2012 01:52:40 AM 175 Views
maybe people should rate QB simply by which team wins the game *NM* random thoughts - 26/09/2012 05:43:04 PM 169 Views
QBs should in part be rated on wins. I mean, that is afterall the result desired. callandor1000 - 27/09/2012 02:36:04 PM 428 Views
I agree with Cannoli, sadly. These officials are not much worse if at all. callandor1000 - 26/09/2012 01:51:30 AM 570 Views
there is a huge difference between blowing a call and not understanding the rules of the game moondog - 25/09/2012 03:35:44 PM 406 Views
I love the replacement refs Praziquantel - 26/09/2012 04:25:42 PM 371 Views
