And you're good at making stuff up.

And refusing to do anything but go blindly along with the lemmings who always look for a conspiracy behind every loss.

OPI - good call.
TD - debateable call.
Hold - good call.
BBTW - still haven't seen it, can't say.

If you want to debate calls, fine - that's what sports is about. But if you're going to get hysterical and say the game was ruined by the officiating and that it's national outrage and anyone who doesn't believe with your made-up bullsh** is an apologist or a poor excuse for an official, then you've crossed the line.

I've got facts. You've got hysteria. Which one makes for the better argument?

Quote:
Every call is correct if it meets the obscure words in the rulebook, with no regard for the spirit of the rule or the reason the officials are there to begin with -- to make sure the game is played on an even playing field. Certain officials unfortunately believe that they run the show and can't stand it when people say they (or their heros) make mistakes.
Man are you off when it comes to the people you're arguing with here.
