I emailed the NCAA this:



"I have a question and it pretains to officials. I'm aware the conferances supply their own refs abd its up to each conferance to evaluate their performance. However, in light of several "questionable" calls that have occured in games this year -none more ridiculous than what took place during the Auburn-Arkansas game involving not only the refs on the field but the replay official in the booth as well. You know the calls I'm referring to-I'm talking about the calls everyone else in the nation as well as the CBS commentators witnessed. I'm in no way saying there is a fix on or anything of the sort-I'm just saying someone should keep an eye on this if possible. Now, if I'm not mistaken, isn't it one of the NCAA's duties to protect the integrity of college of college sports? The way you can help accomplish this is to at least notify the ALL conference offices and let them know the officials including those in the replay booth will be monitored. Is that a possibility for the NCAA to look into? "

Thank you for your input.
Your contributions continue to make this site better.

I also sent a copy to the SEC office!!!

I just hope you didn't identify yourself as an LSU fan with all those grammar and spelling errors.

I appreciate your proactive attitude, though.

You obviously feel very passionately about this issue and put a lot of thought into the writing. Did you take the extra step of spell checking before you hit send?

The most action this e-mail will get at the NCAA offices is the quick delete button. And thats if they bother to do that.

Why weaken your argument? Sell it.

If they know, why tell them? Redundant.

Avoid using second person.

Sure you are...and you told on yourself like most do.

If they didn't stop at "pretains" they didn't read much more.
"Conferances" "abd"
Come on, stark, it's called spell check. Use it!

I seriously thought it was a joke after reading the first couple lines. Terrible spelling killed the message.

Please, please tell me it's a joke. Did you actually write that? And if you did, please please you tell me that didn't identify yourself as either an LSU fan or, God forbid, an LSU graduate.
And to think that people criticize Les Miles' use of the English language.
