Actually, I checked out the forum because I was curious what other officials thought about what I saw as a very poorly called game. I was surprised to see so few people questioning the calls, and nearly everybody defending the calls, giving the benefit of the doubt on EVERYTHING.

I had a different opinion, and thought I'd share that to open discussion. Some people have responded with constructive answers and differing opinions, then others simply attack those that don't agree.

To me, that's the difference between a referee that discusses the calls with the players and explains it to them (did you see the "He spit right in his face" explanation that ended all complaining by the players?), which is a GOOD job of officiating, and the basketball ref that gives a technical if anybody questions a single call, which is a BAD job of officiating.

I can see which one you are. [/B]

The NFL reviewed all of the calls and found nothing wrong. I disagree with one, the bogus call on Hasselbeck when he tackled Ike Taylor (and didn't even hit the blocker in question) but other than that what evidence do YOU have other than your opinion?
