there is a huge difference between blowing a call and not understanding the rules of the game

hochuli apologized after blowing that call in the game referenced by your article, not that it did anyone any good. but at least he owned up to his mistake. have any replacement refs been allowed to comment on their mistakes in any of the 48 games played so far? there's a lot of stuff that could be claimed for apology in such a short time if the NFL were willing to let them do so.

A good point regarding the replacement officials

Only fair; you and rt made me agree with Cannoli in the Eli vs. Romo threads.

And here's a straight-up "caused one team to be able to win" situation:

That was the right call. "Union" has nothing to do with it.

why the union comments at the end of your post if it had nothing to do with your argument?

It was a sideline from the major point and not my motivation, as Dannymac insinuates.

The replay officals are not replacements. Maybe Rodgers just isn't a clutch QB *NM*

He was being sarcastic. See our earlier posts about Romo and Eli Manning *NM*

Maybe Rodgers should have played at his apparent high level of play the entire game. *NM*

maybe people should rate QB simply by which team wins the game *NM*

QBs should in part be rated on wins. I mean, that is afterall the result desired.

I agree with Cannoli, sadly. These officials are not much worse if at all.
