If I did the equivalent of that in my job I’d likely be out of a job. They need to lose theirs.
The ugly truth is that what he "did" was make decision that eventually led to a more preferably outcome, higher revenue for NFL.

The situation hurts the integrity of the system but the very small dip of viewers they lose from this, they will gain back + some in LA.

Good. frick them and all of the NFL executives who are behind this.

The NFL is charging fans money to watch a game that they do everything in their power to manipulate and control the outcome. It’s disgusting and they need to be held accountable.

Sad.

It's just a game.


You’re wrong. It’s not about the game. People can take wins and losses. What they cant tolerate is injustice the likes of what we all witnessed in the Dome this weekend. That’s what they can’t tolerate, and neither can I. It’s disgusting.

The refs *may* have messed up, but they saints still had an opportunity to win the game, trips to the Super Bowl are earned and the rams earned theirs by winning in overtime.

Your outrage should be directed at the defense who couldn't get a stop when the team needed it the most.

So, in other words.. the saints should have tackled the players before the ball arrived to win the gane. Been solid on defense.

They did everything up to that point to win the game. It was earned. It was a game winning situation that was taken, and no one has given a real, legit explanation. At the level they are at..its inexcusable.

Right blame
The d for a couple DPIS that were not called that would have led to more points and less time basically finishing game. Blame
The d for getting a stop on third down during phantom tineout drive? That’s 3 less points for rams.

Just stfu u moron and go away

Messing up is missing a call that could have gone another way. There was NO other way that could have gone BUT pass interference. That’s the only reason the Rams are going to the Super Bowl. It wasn’t what they did on the field that got them there. It’s what the officials did, or rather failed to do, that got them to the Super Bowl. That’s a fact.

More accurately he saints defense didn't stand in their way to prevent it.

If the saints were the superior team the the game would not have went ot overtime, would not have come down to one play, allegedly.

At this level of football, the difference between winners and losers almost always comes down to a play (or two).

This is the first time I can say that I’ve seen the refs be that difference in that, without the controversial call having some defense. There is literally no one in the world that can say that wasn’t PI

Not all of our roster are successful millionaires. A couple hundred grand as a bonus is life changing to some of those guys.
Not like it’s a 30 year career either. 4 years is the average. NFL screws players like no other league. When I see friends like Todd Kinchen hurting with every step they take at 40 something years old, I realize these guys deserve every penny they earn.

uncatchable pass


Ball was perfectly thrown. It was uncatchable because the receiver was decleated while the ball was in the air.
