Missing the point, Snaqs. I'm not really expecting Jud to have said anything, that's just me being an a$$-hat. But it is total bullsh!t that every glaring mistake by the officials went against his team. His team was just as likely to have some "bad" calls go their way but yet here in the forum, where he doesn't need to advocate for his team, he doesn't have one single instance where he says "we sure got the benefit of some horrible officiating on a couple of plays last night".

Thus my opinion about him embellishing the entire story. I can't trust his accounting of the details of each scenario.

Which begs the question, can anyone really trust anyone elses accounting of details in any scenario? Would you have been more willing to accept the assesment of someone who said they acted in such a way that made them look good? Make them look bad? Conform or contradict your (plural) POV or pre conceived assumptions? A great study is to look at Police Reports or Military After Action reports. More often then not, people who were a part of the same event have different recollections about them. It is just human nature.
Obviously, I was recalling the incidents from my point of view. The officials will have their own point of view, which may or may not correspond with my own recollections. I was not attempting to embellish anything and have stated my reasons for posting what I posted and where I was wrong in my actions.

1) And obviously I was basing my response on my point of view of your point of view.

2) My point of view is based solely ON YOUR own recollections.

So would I then be reading from my point of view, your point of view, disecting my point of view from the point of view of some one with multiple points of view?
Seriously, I agree with what you are saying. I was more directing my response at BNR.

And you're still missing the point. I'm not saying you are embellishing b/c we are only hearing your POV.

I'm saying you are embellishing b/c every single instance of supposed incompetency went against your team. So if you can't be candid enough to bring up a couple of gaffes by the officials which benefitted your team then I call into question your remembrance of the game period.

And personally, I think that expectation is ridiculous and not relevant to the OP's story.
