From A Cowgal's Forum

I am a member at a Boys forum, and they keep on blaming the refs, with the facemask, saying it should have been 5.

There were enough bad calls for both teams that they need to forget about that BS arguement. Like my dad (a high school wrestling ref for at least 25yrs) says, if they're really that much better of a team the refs shouldn't have decided it.

Is that ALL they have to go on?! LOL.

Is that ALL they have to go on?! LOL. I guess they forgot about TO dropping a sure touchdown late in the game, or Tits McGee going for 2 instead of the sure points so damn early in the game.
Why can't they just say that we beat them and congratulate us for the win? (what D-bag said that back in week 2?)

hell, I'm watching the highlights right now, why didn't Man-tits throw the red flag on the safety call? It was close enough that they might have overturned it.
Maybe I'm just saying this because of the Maryland game on Saturday. GO TERPS

Right. It would be different if we were over there talking shit. I think if you want to man-up and talk shit in another team's forum, THEN you should have balls enough to come back.

I just saw another reason that they shouldn't be bitching about the reffing while I was watching the highlights (besides the fact that Taylor's helmet got turned sideways); the fact that ARE was only tackled on his last punt return, the one that started the drive that ended in the missed FG, is because a cowboy kicked him in the leg. The announcers were even saying there should have been a flag on that one. So the drive would have started from a lot closer, meaning that the first attempt could have been from a lot closer.
So, to sum up, screw them.

PS- I swear to God that the most hideous woman I have ever seen sat right in front of us at the game. Even if she weren't wearing a Skins jersey she would have been ugly, but that really didn't help matters. I hope she dons a paper bag if she ever returns to those seats.

I seem to remember Aikman pointing out several non-calls...so it seems the Refs really bit the big one...

but I did look at the Taylor face mask again, and that guy had no intentions of tackling, he was just putting his hand up to grab whatever he could.

When the head turns it's 15 yards...plain and simple. Cry me a river...

Find the photo gallery link on the right and take a look at picture #10 and then try to tell me that the refs should have only called that a 5yrd facemask penalty. If the cowboy had pulled a little harder Taylor would have looked like Linda Blair.
