Scrub Refs finally screwed up a game to give the wrong team the win. - nativefalcon - 09-24-2012 11:54 PM
It fianally happened, The stupid scrub refferees, screwed up a game to give the wrong team the win, The green bay team, it was a obvious interception and the seahawk pushed off then ripped the ball out of the GB player on the ground and they called it a touch down, I gurantee, the NFL will get the real referees back this week, this is BS, Green Bay won that game. These scrub refs are horrible.
You will hear about this all week.

absolutely just WOW.....even without the the interception, that was CLEARLY offensive pass interference and should have ended the game. what a horrible way to lose a game....
what happened to all scoring plays are reviewed? how did that make it past review?

Some talking head is gonna have the Packers as the best team in the NFC in his power rankings this week because of this.

My issue is that if the shoe was on the other foot it would be no big deal. But because the Packers are one of the "popular" teams it's gonna get overblown.

I don't understand what's so bad about this. Sure it sucks to lose this way, but if you don't want to, keep your QB from eating dirt 9 times!
It was simultaneous possession. Impossible to tell who actually had the ball (meaning it goes to the offense). Sure GB had MORE ball, but Tate had the ball too... and had both hands on it, which is why the ref called TD. I mean, he had both hands on it.... how do you not say both hands is not enough? I've seen the "regular" refs make the same call many times (just not as the last play of the game).
People are making a big deal to create drama...
The review could not reverse the Ref call on possession, only whether it was caught or not. People acting like the replay would have given it to GB are wrong. The replay was not the issue. As for the "pass interference" - every Hail Mary has that kind of jockeying, and it is never called, replacements or no.
This was a judgement call, and the ref made his judgement (substantiated by the two hands on the ball, which ESPN keeps ignoring, calling it one arm). EVERY judgement call will be controversial. Nothing, including giving in to the refs (which some of their demands - not the money, but the operational ones - are ridiculous), will change that.

Greenbay deserves this crap...they let the game be way too close at the end to be the Super Champs that are expected to go back this year. GB played awful like they expected to win...their coach even said the offensive game plan was poorly thought out for the first half and they needed to make adjustments in the 2nd half and still flubbed it at the end to give Seattle a chance!!!

With all due respect, Packers played an awful game and the call went against them at the end.
All of the usual NFL darlings are getting their behinds kicked and have losing records.
Saints 0-3
Greenbay 1-2
N'England 1-2
All media darlings with losing records and how dare the refs make a call against the darlings of the NFL!!!
LOL Shutup and take it!!! You play the game the end and let the ball fall where it will...
Just my take!!!
