God Why Can't The Refs Be Fair

I'm not blaming all the Skins' problems on the refs, but I will say the officiating has been a joke in pretty much all our games. And when you go through all the sketchy calls it's hard to say the refs haven't cost us a game or two, not to mention the momentum that comes from winning a close hard-fought game.

Take the Philly game. That reviewed out-of-bounds play and the PI on Smoot were both brutal calls. I believe both were on 3rd downs and resulted in huge 1st downs instead of punts. These are the type of calls that do affect the outcome of a game. I know it has to be somewhat expected when you're playing in Philly against the best team in the league, the calls just ain't gonna go your way for the most part. Fine I can live with that.

But where's the reciprocation? We got SCREWED in the Dallas game and the Green Bay game, and both were in our home park. I think all that any of us want from the refs is CONSISTENCY and I've seen none this year.

Let me go on record as saying "I DO believe in a conspiracy". I think the powers-that-be around the league have it in for Snyder and love seeing him fail. I am a little surprised that this hatred has spilled over to Gibbs, one of the greatest coaches in NFL history.

Let me repeat I am not blaming the refs for the Skins failures this season. But the calls this year seem to be more lopsided than I've ever seen in my life, and it's getting harder to dispel the conspiracy theories when it seems to happen every week.

Thanks for letting me rant! :rant:

I agree with you CC. Although in the end, I dont know if it would have made a difference last week... I know for sure that it would have made a difference against Dallas and GB... that was such chicken-bleep.

Sorry I swear to god that was my brother I'm changing my password
