Ravens/Patriots last night

Can't believe nobody's discussing this.

Not just this, but the whole thing, everything that happened at the end.

How about in a game of this magnitude, you don't throw an official's flag into the freaking stands?

Typical player. Always looking for an alibi or a scapegoat. It's always the officials. You guys let the Patriots drive for the winning score. Your defensive coordinator called time out when you stopped them on 4th and 1.

You lost. You decided the outcome of the game.

That said, I don't know what to do about an official calling a player "boy," whether or not said official and said player share the same race and the official played in the league or not.
