These officials will go down in history......
Friggin scabs. Unbelievable.
Yes... Yes they did...
I blame the unions. Btw my in laws own part of packers organization.
A small part of me is glad they got robbed, cause I happen to hail from the chi-town region.
You would think that they would be getting better as the weeks go by, but its the exact opposite!
Why even try for four quarters when you get robbed like that? I wish the teams would refuse to play. I am so pissed right now.
I can't believe we just saw that on national tv. Are these little league refs? What will happen tomarrow?
ESPN said some of the refs are high school refsQuote:

Well, Wisconsin. How do you feel about unions now!?

Scab rat bastards.
When the ref came out to make the call after review, you could have heard a pin drop in that stadium.

This is going to go on for WEEKS.... I love it!!!!!!!! BRING BACK HOCKEY!!!!!!
It'll be interesting to hear about this for the weeks to come! I was shocked to see that. Not a Packers fan either, but i feel kind of bad for them, technically they deserve a "W" And then bringing them back out for the extra point?!?!? WTF lol
Now hold on... They didn't force the Packers back out. The Packers came out on their own. Which is a class act, especially since they didn't do anything dirty.Quote:

It might be the worst "obvious" call in history... But not the worst overall... [LOL]Quote:

Ya never know what is going to happen. It's so exciting. You don't know if that play was a fumble, a home run, or what...Quote:

I'm going to have to side with the terrible call. Here's the thing though, how many times in the past have we said the same thing with the regular refs? I bet that they build a
disclaimer in the new contract that says the color analyzers cannot dispute the calls like they are now once the regulars are back.
This poll was in the Seattle Post Intelligencer:
Did the Seahawks come down with that game-winning touchdown?
- No way! This is football blasphemy! Screw the refs! The Packers should have won! (72%, 2,238 Votes)
- No, but what can you do? The replacement refs did the best the could with the replay available. (10%, 303 Votes)
- Yes! It was a simultaneous catch, the refs called it, and they upheld it. (9%, 292 Votes)
- Well ... if that's what the refs said, I'm all for it. Go Seahawks! (6%, 190 Votes)
- Not a clue. It's inconclusive. (3%, 72 Votes)
Total Voters: 3,095
[ROFL1][ROFL2][ROFL3]
However seeing Bilicheck blow a gasket on Sunday and a bunch of angry Cheeseheads on Monday…totally worth it! [BooHoo]
Just a thought.. but you think these refs are intentionally 'blowing' the calls to make the fans outraged at the NFL for locking the players out?
Wouldn't be the first time a union tried to be underhanded.
Do you really think that this level of incompetence would we accepted even in Div II games? I think not.
I think this blatant horrible screw ups are intentional on the part of the refs in order for their 'union' to get what they want, by forcing the NFL through the angst of the fans.
These guys are scabs I don't think they're in the same union as the regular refs Monky
The call on the field was not the worst call in history, reviewing and upholding the call was the worst call in history.Quote:

It definitely adds a little more excitement to the game. I watch just to see who will get screwed next.
I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be in the same union, but probably do have communication and you scratch our back we'll scratch yours shit going on. No one can be that stupid on some of these calls.Quote:

Never attribute to malice, that which can be explained by stupidity.
Fvck yeah! You've got to be kidding me if you think these refs are completely blowing their chance of ever being a ref in the nfl, for 121 guys' pension. Monky, with all due respect - you're living up to your title.Quote:

I haven't watched or gone to a baseball game since the strike in '94. Totally soured me to the sport. Now football is the last sport that I like watching and even that is going south.... FAST.
I don't really care. The broncos lost. That is what sucks. Besides I am sure there were many opportunities both teams had to win the game that would have made this call less of an issue.
eh, it was close enough to a dual position catch. The regular refs may have made the same call. Anyways, all refs make mistakes and so do mods!
