Owners and players from other teams are (for the most part) keeping quiet. Why? Because it didn’t happen to them.

If Dallas had lost a game to Atlanta, or New England had lost to the Texans, in the exact same fashion, you’d bet Jerry Jones / Kraft would be in New York today. And the papers/press would be running out of (virtual) ink with all the articles they’d be printing.

But it didn’t so JJ is saying “I didn’t see it.”

I feel like I just witnessed organized crime pull off a heist.

NFL is making it easy using these guys. Their inaction and following statment demonstrates wilfull blindness.

That said these are either the worst refs I’ve ever seen or the best ‘refs’ in the business. If you can’t spot the fish at the table you’re it. Bet accordingly.

This is about contract language. The very ref’s that people are screaming to have back, want a no fire clause in the contract. This is what the strike is about, this is why there is no settlement.

The owners and the league are willing to give them more money and some more bennies but they also want to be able to get rid of the bad refs.

How many teachers did you have that sucked and it would have been nice for the school to can them?

The Packs problems have only started. Again where is the pass rush besides Mathews and where is the pass protection. Yes they have a clown who has not recovered at all from a broken leg last year and no idea if he will even play. My take is the guy got bigger than a bread truck and can’t stand on his leg.

1) The Seattle defense put a beat down on Green Bay. Despite the score, Aaron Rogers spent more time on his back than the ladies at the Mustang Ranch. The Seahawks (insert normal injury caveat here), and especially the defense, look significant. Nice going, ‘Hawks… (and I dig the new uni’s. Oregon Ducks now affect the NFL…)

2) Refs always suck. The replacement refs just suck a bit more. RG needs to make a deal for them to go away — this week — before next weekend turns into real carnage.

Nevermind…he is still running for his life

Replacement Refs: 1
Old Union Refs: 1,329,765,869

If the regular refs made that same call, nobody would be saying a thing about it. It’s like the people in sports media completely fogey that the old refs made horrible calls all of the time. The difference now is only that the union NFL players and the union media want their buddies back on the job and desperately want to demonize the replacements. The funny thing is, the unionized media largely supported their union ref buddies even when they made the most horrible calls. It was insulting to the intelligence of fans everywhere.

Frankly, I’m still angry with the old refs for their countless game-changing blown calls, and as far as I’m concerned they can sit at home on their sorry backsides for eternity.

No, because once you become the darling of the NFL and ESPN, you automatically assume a sense of entitlement. Ya’ll get paid MILLIONS to play a GAME. Listening to Young/Dilfer/Scott/any talking head last night, you’d think Hitler had just been reanimated and was initiating a siege on the western seaboard. Good grief, if people cared half as much about politics as they do the NFL, this country might not be going down the proverbial crapper.

Why is everyone seemingly missing this point! Its like the white elephant in the room, everyone is ignoring it, the blame is on the owners, but no coach is going to criticize their owner.

Seahawk fan…you have a product to be proud of. That defense is the closest thing to the 1986 Bears that I have seen.

Having that said…you stole one. Not only was it pass interference, it was an interception.

If I was a Packer fan, I’d be ticked off too.
