Is it just remotely possible that those DB's who were "being flagged all season for holding" were not in these games????????

Smile Most flags?

I keep hearing coments about the most flags thrown. If evaluators are looking at each play and from what I understand they do, it does not matter who throws the most flags but who throws the most flags that should be thrown. I fail to see how number of flags thrown can be perceived as determining the quality of the officiating!

Has Tony worked a playoff game this season as the white hat? I know that I have missed a couple of the games, so that is why I was wondering?

Normally, Super Bowl officiating invites are only given to officials that I have rounds prior to the conference championship games.

If my information is wrong, please feel free to correct me and give correct information.

John, check out the link from above, it lists the crews as they have been so far. I don't see Tony in there unless he was an alternate, I didn't look that close.

I'm attending a national officiating conference last this year and there's a rumour that the guest speaker is Jerry Seeman.

I've met Red Cashion and now perhaps Jerry Seeman. Looking forward to it...

I am glad to see that Ed H is working the Super Bowl. I think it is very well deserved for him and his fellow crew mates.

You can also goto NFL.com and checkout the gamebook for any game and find out who the officials were.

It's funny that Carollo is alternate for Hochuli at the superbowl because last year their roles were reversed with Hochuli the alternate and Carollo the R. I guess the NFL clearly sees those two guys as the top Referees in the league.

No, it's Eds 2nd SB. He had Superbowl XXXII (GB/Den) after the 1997 season.

Question

Just a question, and I realize hind sight is 20-20, but wouldn't the Super Bowl official most likely had to have been Ed Hochuli? Here's why: I figure, like many have said, that the NFL wants to use crews that have already worked a playoff game in the first two rounds. But like the regular season, they probably don't want to have referees officiating games involving the same team in a short time period. In otherwords, Carolina advancing to the Super Bowl elminated 3 referees (Coleman, Carey, and, course, Kukar). New England advancing eliminated 1 more referee (Carollo) [Coleman did second game]. That left four officials who worked playoff games that didn't involve a team in the Super Bowl; Jeff Triplette (TEN-BAL), Johnny Grier (DEN-IND), Gerry Austin (KC-IND), and Hochuli (PHI-GB). Now I would contend, as some have on this board, that Grier had a bad year and I was surprised he got a playoff game. Triplette is a relatively inexperienced referee; Austin, while very good, has worked two Super Bowls in the last five or so years. Now while none of this really matters, and I am sure there is no reason a referee who hasn't worked since the regular season couldn't work the Super Bowl, if I were a betting man, Ed Hochuli would have been my choice as soon as Carolina beat Philadelphia.

I apologize if any part of this post repeats anything that someone else may have posted. I haven't had a chance to read all the previous posts.
