[quote=Mattyk;991158]The replacement refs were a joke and couldn't control a game, remember the Rams game? Or how about the Packers/Seahawks debacle? I mean come on its not even worth comparing. The regular refs are far from perfect but they are far superior to the replacements.[/quote]I can agree the replacement refs were slightly worse, but both groups are horrible IMO. Not that I could do any better myself. But for as much money as we devote to the game, including the costs paid to televise in ever greater detail at every angle possible in high def, why can't the NFL afford to pay refs like professionals?

edit: What gets me about the Packer/Seahawk game: it was the missed offensive pass interference, not the possession rule that everybody focused on, that was the wrong decision, right?

PI never gets called on hail marys in the end zone, it's practically an unwritten rule among refs

Sounds like a normal night in the city of Philadelphia.

McCoy grew up in Harrisburg, the "other" dumpster of the Commonwealth of PA, so none of this classiness shocks me.
