Default NFL officiating this season

OMFG I've seen a LOT of crappy or "just because" calls but the final call with GB & the Hawks tonight... that is the.... I'm at a loss for words.

I know they (the officials) are tossed into this & really are out of their league (no pun intended) & without them we wouldn't have NFL right now... but wtf?!

I've seen a lot of crappy calls - ok fine **it happens... but really.
Ones a retired accountant, another a school teacher... ty for helping the NFL have games & it's a lot to gain knowledge to NFL from high school etc.
But I'm not sure I can watch more of this BS
Like a commentator said "it's the most interesting season". <--- ugh

Oh man. I heard it was bad so I haven't been watching. But I just checked out ESPN and watched the video from the Seahawks game....That's really killing it for me.

I consider that call payback for the 1998 Vinnie Testaverde phantom touchdown.

^^^^ LMAO^^^^ seems like it!
I really like the comment about the witness protection program... that's funny as hell.
Good thing this isn't european football (soccer) there'd be riots, death threats all over the place!

Next time I get pissed at someone & want to wish them the crabs of a 1000 ****** & arms too short to scratch... I'll just say I'd wish they were an NFL fill-in ref!
