I didn't see the game because I choose to work on my off day. This is the first I've heard about it. I guess I can't talk shit to Blissamondo.
Aside from the fact that I ended up with the Lions in my playoff pool, I cannot believe the officiating of this game. This is a PLAYOFF game. You get only one chance and the refs were terrible against the Lions. I hope the Lions do something tomorrow to let the NFL know that what happened to them today was not right. Unfortunately, it won't matter what happens, since they've been eliminated. It's not like they can play the game again. And I agree, the Dallas fans should NOT feel good about this win. I just saw this on Facebook tonight. Very, very interesting. I wonder what will happen with this information, especially given what happened at today's game.
Oh you didnt see it? Here you go... Now, you know football. Whotcha think? First down Lions, ya? So the ref calls P.I... Then....Dez does this (w/o his helmet, mind you)... https://vine.co/v/OdDhqFz32Tx... (That's an automatic 15 yards, as well as an automatic fine The ref after a long delay, picks up the flag. No explanation. Nada. Fourth down. Hitchens refuses all reporter interviews post game. Lol. Lions players interviewed, saying it was set up for a Dalla$ -Green Bay $howdown. Ref just issued a BS 'explanation' statement. On Cowboy stationary. You can't make this stuff up "Don't worry Tony, we got you".
Fans drive the NFL and if they suspect fuxing, they tune out. The NFL should address this and not downplay it. Remember Bob Costas's blurb? “Every team sport benefits when the winning is spread around a bit, but it’s never good when the flagship franchises, the ones with national profiles, are out of the mix for a prolonged period."..
i saw that play....i was like pi. then they picked up the flag...i was like..."oh. the check is in the mail"
I finally saw the play. It should have been holding at the beginning of the play, and he did make contact near the end. But this dude speaks the truth. [YOUTUBE]ZH6ZhvNnB9Y[/YOUTUBE]
There is "some" truth in that, but doesn't tell the whole story, when the refs blow a blatant call late in title games or playoff games the team getting hosed always emotionally let down, that's human nature, Raider fan and after the tomfoolery of the tuck rule knew damn well we were cooked , a hurricanes fan the ref throwing the flag after fireworks get shot off players throwing helmets in celebration was certain Miami was cooked,, been screaming it for years the pi call in football is ruining the sport,, at least make at least 3 you can challenge and forget about the giving up time out bs , defensive holding should be 5 yards period not a auto first down and the bang bang pi calls that happen 30 yards or more downfield just a 10 yarder and auto 1st down and for the love of God please fix the "defenseless wr" rule good grief the qb throws the ball in a zone surrounded by 3 defenders and if it's bang bang and its a little dude that defender is getting a flag,, fix that bs make the ref who threw the flag explain his call to the crew chief who then ask the other ref involved if he saw same penalty ,, Down off my box
This. Those refs won't be doing another game, though in the NFL's eyes, they did their job. Shit was rigged plain and simple. Gotta get those cowboy fans to tune in as their middle of the pack team hasn't been near this good in 20 years.
:smt005...yeah it's the weekend! just got back to Denver...UNITED IN ORANGE...Christmas lights changed to ORANGE/BLUE ...so ready for some FOOTBALL
That's gonna be you around 4pm Sunday... Wow, always a great game between a QB's former team. Go Denver. .... On a side note....I don't know how this escaped my eye when I originally posted it, but I just realized this pic was taken on my Eagles football field. I know that place anywhere, lol.
oh please, refs called 15 yards on Raven's coach for coming onto the field... Michaels said "Well, he's not Dez Bryant, that's why"... TD by the Pats. -------------- - Seahawks Bennet did not force the fumble... Panther player never had it secured properly. TD Seahawks. - Loved that Panther walk in TD. He looked at them both like "WHAT???" - Fuuuck Seattle catch n TD. Wait, did announcer just say seattle 14 - nothing? Lol, uhh.....
Geeze, Seattle's secondary are flying around back there. Wow, to have a Safety like that ****** Oi. Well the usual suspects advance. Tomorrow.'..should be really good.
