  • The refs in the NFL have been horrendous for the past 3 years. It's almost like they are relying too heavily on instant replay to bail them out. Then you get a play that is not can't be reviewed, you have a huge fuck up (like last night). It seems like the refs are not paying attention.

    And to top it off, even when they do use replay, they still get the call wrong. It's really unbelievable. I have been a huge supporter of replay, but it's getting to the point where the refs are deciding too many games.

    The NFL would benefit from having full time officials. They are the only professional sports league in North America whose officials have other full-time jobs and work games on the side.

  • Mexico full of class when US national anthem played. Respect was paid.

    For the record, I thought it was weird to place the large man configured US flag in the middle of the Mexico stadium and sing the national anthem. I'm wondering why they didn't have a US and Mexico flag side by side and sing both anthems (they likely did sing the Mexican national anthem... I just didn't see it because the network never showed it- disrespectful).

    That's a nice change. I remember a US v. Mexico soccer game several years ago, and the Mexican fans in Estadio Jalisco chanted Osama, Osama, Osama during our anthem. They still routinely boo. I don't have much respect for Mexican soccer fans, but I'm glad to hear that the reception was more respectful for American Football. Probably because they didn't have any skin in the game.

    LA people whining that team's issues are a 'St.Louis thing'? Pffft. Typical west coast doesn't know anything exists east of Vegas. This team has SUCKED for 20 years, now they live and play in LA.
