Yeah, that will be insufferable.

Stick Stickly on Sunday Night will be even more unbearable if that's even possible.

I think the regular refs are going to get highlighted when they miss calls this weekend as well. They're going to be rusty.

Regular refs blow thier share of calls too.

Well, sure.

They are human, afterall.

The difference is they've been doing this for years.

You'll very rarely see the ineptitude that we've seen the past 7 weeks from the real refs.

I may be a rare bird but I usually don't get up in arms over calls or non-calls unless they're ridiculously blatant.

And they should have been overturned. Are you saying that NO deserved touchdowns on those plays, especially the overturned call in OT when Droughn was down or when the NO receiver's foot was out of bounds at the pylon? Chiefs would have lost with regular officials because they are biased.

You're going to see the more illegal contact calls.

The replacements weren't calling those.

The Saints were screwed out of a TD.

Just so long as they start calling the holds against Hali, I'll be pretty happy. I don't see them altering much otherwise.

I swear, I cannot fathom why they allow him to be throat-chocked and hog-collared and esophagus-squeezed on every single down.

Which play was that, might I ask? I missed the entire second half.

The one where the Saints player fell as he caught it, got up and scored.

They called it a TD on the field, but reviewed it and overturned it.

They got it wrong.

Yea but think about it, that play had to be reviewed by the real review teams and was let thru as well

But the REAL refs would NEVER have called that a TD.

The REAL refs would have conferred on the field before announcing what the on-field call actually was, which was NOT done Monday night.

Imon Yourside 09-27-2012 01:49 AM

Rather than taking forever to get it right, I expect them to make the usual bad calls and then stick by the bad calls after further review.

Without these replacement refs we would be 0-3
