Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Go Pats!!!!!!! Fantastic game last night. No kneelers. Passable Anthem. And two great teams, well matched, with enough lead changes to keep you there to the end. One game to go. LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 YES! On the train this morning, I was looking for game reports. Had to kill the NYT cookie so I could read the article.playing the Rams again. What a way to bookend a career. the sports book had the Pats as underdogs, for about ten minutes.

Henry T Harrison Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I haven’t watched a game since the Beyonce Super Bowl charade and have no plans to change anything soon. Now Gladys Knight is being condemned because she will be preforming the “racist “ National Anthem Screw the NFL thugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Seams to me KC also got beat by the officials..... Both games were decided by the officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Pat Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 The NFL definately wanted the Patriots and Rams to win because of the larger markets. The Rams are building a new stadium bigger than the Cowboys and I expect they have already won the Superbowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I had to turn off the sound on the Chiefs game. Motormouth Tony Romo just wouldn't stop yammering. I doubt Jim Nance got 25 words in the whole game. Not only did the Saints get screwed, I thought NFL officiating was pretty bad throughout the season. And JMO, I think that Saints non-call might have been deliberate. How else do you explain it? The player even admitted after the game he had committed the foul and was surprised by the no call.

Irish Pat Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I was hoping the Chiefs would win as my friends tell I look like Coach Andy Reid but after the Saints game I could not watch their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlaw Gambler Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Talking about poor officials, don't overlook the terrible "roughing the passer" call on the Chief's for touching Baby Boo Brady's shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The Saints/Rams 'no call' situation is bad. I wouldn't surprise me if that official, or that team of officials don't get a lot of games to work next year...... unless the Rams request it..... Stuff like this makes ya wonder..... ? ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 I realize there are some hurting folks out here, but I have real doubts about the numerous "intentional act" or conspiracy theories about the refs' calls. Think for a moment what that would mean. You're talking about involvement by dozens or even hundreds of refs, league officials and others; a concerted plan to promote select teams and harm others; a conspiracy to commit fraud; and a series of cover-ups bigger than Watergate - all in an industry subject to Federal anti-trust scrutiny. I don't think that the owners or the league or the sports media or the Feds would put up with that. I think it's more likely that refs are human, the action is fast, no one person or camera has a full and complete view of every play, and mistakes happen. There's a part of me that wants to go back to the 60s - no replays, and everybody lived with decisions made on the spot. Not perfect, but faster and less aggravating.

Snake River Clay SASS #34984 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I always like the super bowl no matter who's playing. I wasn't able to watch the 2 playoff games live so used the DVR. I'm so glad I did. Great games. The Patriots have a great chance since they aren't playing the Giants.
