According to your logic, you'd think I was taking a bribe from a coach because he was rich, and his team struck out 15 batters while the other one struck out just 1. And, when there was a close play at the plate, I had his runner safe. And when we had **** hit the fan on a wierd play, and we kicked it, it went for his team.

Tuss you are using the wrong logic.
Suppose you saw a Fellow Official calling pitches balls that were "right down Broadway" time after time for ONE team then had a different strike zone altogether for another.
It has happened and in our kneck of the woods these types of umpires were labeled "homers"

I, frankly, am not going to throw that crew under the bus. I don't do football, but I consider them my brother official.

No ones's throwing anyone "under the bus" but pointing out facts that even the NFL has not explained. I was merely pointing out that in lite of Donaghy the idea of corruption exists.

As for Donaghy, that punk can rot in jail as far as I'm concerned, a true disgrace to the profession.
And frankly, so are you right now Pete - with absolutely no substantiated evidence you've tried to implicate a brother official. I'm not okay with that. At all.

Again I am NOT implicating anyone but presenting "another side" of events. If it happened in the NBA why not football where there is millions of dollars bet.
Sorry I hit a nerve but if a major league baseball umpire called pitches right down Broadway Balls for one team and a completely different zone for the other the same analogy would be drawn.
