Random Thoughts XXIV

This cracks me up. I've opted out twice, even though I never opted in, and still get the emails.

And, got another this morning.

 

[Slydell]

So sick of the NFL refs.

Hey, we gotta bust all these unions up. It's the new 'Murican way.

 

[volsforever27]

Sick of watching them, hearing about them, I'm just done.

 

[VIF]

People seem to forget the old refs blew a lot of calls as well. It is just more amplified with the moniker of "replacement refs". JMO

 

[Thrasher865]

I think that calls are bad refs can get

 

[VIF]

huh?

I don't keep up with the NFL anymore, but listening to the local sports guys, it appears that in some cases they aren't sure of some of the rules.

I heard this morning that a few of the refs that were fired from the Lingerie Football league for incompetence, were hired as NFL Scab Refs. hillarious if true.lol:

 

[Slydell]

It might just be true. Yes, funny.

 

[VIF]

I might be a tad distracted trying to ref a lingerie game as well. haha

 

[volsforever27]

Before last night, it was something for the media to ***** about. And the coaches and players were trying to intimidate them sometimes.

Now it feels like every call is under scrutiny. There's going to be a huge brawl sooner or later, mark my words.

?
a worker who refuses to join a labor union or to participate in a union strike, who takes a striking worker's place on the job,

just sayin':blink:

 

[Thrasher865]

I would totally be a scab if I needed a job.

 

[TEX_VOLFAN]

Scabs bleed, just saying.

I know of at least two times where they spotted the ball wrong. One team got a personal foul and they moved the ball 20 yds instead of 15. Another it should have been 5 yds added on to the end of the run and they moved it 5yds from the previous spot.

 

[jhen713]

They are doing a terrible job. I don't blame them though. The NFL and the ref's union need to get something worked out asap. This is gonna end up causing someone a playoff spot.

Don't know which game, but there was one they were talking about on Sunday where the kickoff went out of bounds and they had a five minute conversation to figure out where to spot it. And, still spotted it wrong.

[Thrasher865]

i need to go be a ref

Sadly, I think you're qualified.

 

[VIF]

They are quibbling over 1/20th of 1 percent of the NFL's profit.

 

[DD4ME]

They are quibbling over 1/20th of 1 percent of the NFL's profit.

The bad calling isn't effecting the total percentage of revenue so there is no incentive to fix it.

 

[theFallGuy]

wtf

 

[ego]

bring back the old fg.
