I live in San Diego, and I'm a die hard Chargers fan. While the rest of my friends were screaming obscenities at him through the TV, I kept my mouth shut. If there's one thing I've learned from officiating it's that we have to stick together no matter what. He kicked the call and admitted it on national TV. My respect level for him went up a ton after that.

On another note, if I have to endure one more lame Hochuli joke while I am working a game, then you might see some story on the news about a basketball official in San Diego igniting an all out brawl.

ESPN.com reported over the weekend that the NFL has told Hochuli to stop commenting on the call, including in emails to Chargers fans.

One of the FOX Pre-Game Show Commentators (who will remain nameless at this point) last Sunday said he should be fined and suspended for blowing the call.

One of the FOX Pre-Game Show Commentators (who will remain nameless at this point) last Sunday should be fined and suspended for being a complete freaking moron. Sadly there's no chance of that one happening.

Good for you.

Why don't you just make it your signature line?
