You can be sarcastic all you like. The truth of the matter nothing is going to change because we complain or agree with the calls we have discussed. The NFL is going to do what they see fit and they are going to evaluate their officials the way they see fit. If these calls were not within the philosophies of the NFL, those officials will get some repercussions from that. If the NFL liked the job they did, they will get awarded for that. It does not matter what they say on ESPN or sports radio either. Most of the commentators have said the dumbest things as it relates to accountability by the officials or the way officials are trained.

Thank for the discussion but all our points are basically moot. For those that do officiate and disagree with the calls, I hope you can defend your calls that might seem controversial to those on either side of the game. If you work long enough you will be faced with a call that might be tough or not so obvious by the naked eye. I hope you then remember this conversation that we are having and I hope you get support by your fellow officials. You might just need it.

Peace
