you need to lay off twitter. Just because someone tweets something doesn't mean it's true.

The NFL is SO obvious about intentionally hurting the Saints.

i dont know what yall are arguing but do you think a former falcons player should be working the games on the officiating crew for falcons games?

you think the falcons team and fans would be cool with Marques Colston officiating the next few years of Saints/Falcons games?

I’m surprised they let that happen but he’s officiated many of our games vs atl without incident. Just trying to be rational about it.

Lester, my man, why do you insist on ignoring the obvious here? The evidence is too overwhelming at this point. Did you watch the game?

There's so much more to officiating than reviewing the calls that WERE made. Most of the calls against the saints were "legit". Of course they were 2 or 3 terrible calls in there (the roughing may be on a top10 worst calls ever list, only points of contact were palms of hands to torso). I think the fg call, for instance, was completely legit and all the dumb saints fans harping on that call are just creating noise that distracts from the actual grievance.

My issue is that you can rewatch that game and see many of the same minor infractions being made by the falcons constantly. Maybe they missed them perhaps but the odds, that all the calls go one direction is unbelievably unlucky at the very least, and officiating shouldn't be that dependent on luck.

Basically nothing was called our way. The only real difference making penalty they called, was immediately made up by a first down flag the very next play. When the majority of calls against you are "well that's close" calls, you'd expect the distribution of flags to be a little more balanced because "that's close" calls happen on every play.

There is nothing rational about thinking this ok.

Assuming you went to lsu, you think it's ok for you to officiate lsu football or baseball games?

This is easily avoided by the NFL. They have nothing to gain and everything to lose

It was second on the recorded history of first downs by penalties in the history of the NFL.

I am so fricking tired of the little bitches telling us to get over it. I am Irish I don’t get over shite. This whole country was started on “ not getting over it” with the British. The only people that say shite like that are little kids and women. He is a bully get over it. Life isn’t fair get over it. Your black life is not fair for us get over it, etc etc.

And you know what happens when you get over it. Not a mfer thing bitch.

I say frick this bullshite and fact that 5 out of our last 6 Thursday night games have been on the road against our division rivals Atlanta and Carolina. You don’t think that is an intentional competive disadvantage?

Are we supposed to get over that too?
