Except that my inane post was accurate. Hochuli needs to work more on his officiating skills and less on his biceps. It was a horrible call, and if I see a baseball umpire make a horrible call, I mention that as well. You people that blindly stick up for every single official crack me up. That was the absolute worst call I've ever seen, and that includes the ones from yesterday's horrible officating in London.

Nah, don't soft-sell what you said. You made said more than that and it read to be pretty idiotic. It had nothing to do with analyzing officiating and everything to do with being a disgruntled fan boy. And now the officiating in London was horrible also. You're pretty objective there fella.

Ed H is a known acquaintance of the owners of the site and is a class act. He has worked very hard to get where he is and deserves every thing he has earned. One mistake, no matter how large, does not ruin a lifetime of work in this business. Grow up and find some class.

It was a horrible call. We get that and so does he. Get over it.

SDS your broad characterization of your officiating brethren is appalling. If you want to bash officials, go somewhere else and do it because it is not welcome here.

Discuss calls, philosophy, etc. But this is not a place to openly criticize our own especially by name and even more so from someone who has not even come close to walking in his shoes.

I will only say this once.
