There’s a fine line between keeping pressure on these refs (they are refs, not “scabs”) and being a bully. Some coaches have tried to bully the regular refs.

BTW, the fact that the ref in the picture looks like they are 12 makes it even more hilarious.

I see. So I guess it was only Harbaugh that complained about the refs. Belichick never made any comments about the replacements, I suppose?
Or any other coach?

….
sarcasm mode off.
….

and the jealous posters that take time out ot bash Harbaugh? Carry on. Won’t matter a bit to Harbaugh, the niners will keep on winning.

None of this really matters. The 40whiners will be sitting home again this year watching the Superbowl. Most overrated team I have witnessed.

Their SCABS not refs. They suck and we all know it. There are swallowing their whistle on holding calls and interference. Scabs the rest of their lives

It’s a really sad commentary when you have to tell a grown man such as Harbaugh not to be a bully but it’s obviously what we’ve all come to expect from him

overall New Refs are doing fairly well…. every week last year there were multiple questionable calls by Refs Classic….

Refs Classic were a little better at dealing with coaches… but New Refs will get used to the bluffing…

the real issue is, will Refs Classic allow some level of discipline in their contract…. I hope they do, because it’ll be better for the game….

Well they have been headaches since the get go..they want it to stop, get better. If teams lose games on awful calls consistently those coaches get fired

I’m definitely going to watch tonight’s game. If the Lions hold a late lead on the 49ers, Hairbough’s head will explode. Now that’s entertainment.

Do not, I repeat do not! Give these lames a pass at officiating. Keep the pressure on them, this way the game improves.

I’m sure there are several high-profile coaches who regularly play the “do you know who I AM?” card, regular or replacement refs. It’s not news.

It’s also not nearly as widespread as the variable strike zone in MLB or the worst of all, the different rules for different players in the NBA.
