I'm pretty level headed about penalties and no calls and such. I think I've proven that today in multiple threads by only saying there were two blatant bad calls instead of the laundry lists other posters have.

The Pats have NOTHING compared to what we have to complain about from yesterday. The closest thing they have is the push off, but IMO that was a push off.
Fair enough.

But my point is, when we win because we benefit from 2 completely blown calls, you don't hear about it on here. And if someone brings it up, yet another Saints fan will try to point out the 22 bad calls that went against us.

If you read any message board of any team, it's the same thing, their team is always the one that gets screwed in a loss.

If this board was flooded with as many "we're so fortunate to get those calls we did in that win we had", then I wouldn't complain nearly as much.

I just think LSUandAU, and you as well, are kinda trumping the "blame the officials for the loss" mantra. There are very few people that are saying the officials are THE reason we lost yesterday. That doesn't mean that we can't complain about two very terrible calls that had a direct impact on the game. Not all bad calls lead to points, so in the grand scheme of things they are no big deal. But the non time out put the winning points on the board. Again, not the reason we lost, but it's very infuriating that something so basic as calling a time out got fricked up to the point of costing us points.
