It's bad enough we have fans, coaches, players and broadcasters accusing officials of cheating but now fellow officials? Unbelievable.
First things first

We are not talking about a bad call or things that went awry.

There was No call. For some strange reason which is still uknown the Replay official got involved.

It's not Flimsy when that type of money is involved and the ENTITE state of affairs in the game starting with the Penalty disparity.

It happened in the NBA. There is far more money bet on football games than basketball.

If it happend in the NBA what makes you think it cannot happen in Football. Do you really believe that he is the ONLY Official ever involved?

In addition, there really is NO VALID explanation for what happened at the end of the Pittsburgh / SD game.

Yes I am an offfical but I am also a human being (at least I think I am) and I am merely pointing out VALID events that happened in the game yesterday.

It's akin to steroid abuse in baseball. Other than some testimony and others admitting steroid use (because of pressure etc.) there really is no HARD evidence. Who believes Roger Clemens?

If you think that Roger Clemens took steroids (based upon inuendo or someone's testimony) then why isn't yesterday's events "fishy" at best
