Where is Jim Joyce?

I don't think Jim Joyce worked the post season last year and hasn't this year.
I think he is one of the best. Anybody know why he isn't in the postseason?

Look.

But not out of the game

How does one umpire , Tim Timmons, allow a star like Ortiz to show him up but look the other way, while Fairchild tosses Cabrera who did nothing to show him up?

If a team on defense calls a timeout to challenge the spot on a first down by the offense and is successful, when does the game clock restart?

Excessive celebration-Pinstripe Bowl

An absolute national disgrace.
The Big Ten should be embarrassed for nominating this crew knowing it would make such a horrendous decision.
Its track record was obvious.
