So the officials just decide to just hand Washington a fumble after a Cleveland player emerges from a scrum with it...despite no video evidence that the Redskins actually recovered. Not surprising, NFL supports the decision by it's hand-picked, unregulated refs...funny how things never work out for the Browns.
Enjoy wasting your time/money on an entity designed to exploit you...

But instead, that the team I like just isn't that good at building a championship roster and isn't committed to greatness.

I was giving it one last chance...but the officiating has, somehow, become even more f@cked up. I almost like they arent even trying to hide it anymore. Everyone is acting like this is an accident... it's not. It's greed and power...they are using their media mouth-pieces to push detection away from the source.
It all comes back to the network deal...maximizing advertisement revenue became the objective. They know if games are lop-sided, they lose viewers in the 2nd half. Then you have the spread in Vegas..where a single point differential can mean 10's of millions in profit. All you have to do is call one late PI (that cant be reviewed)....easy money. The catch is..they can never be arrested for it. Just say "sorry" and deposit the cash. [Reply]

Don't get me wrong... it's fun reading. You've mentioned (as have others) that ratings are down because of the way last season ended and all the crazy you've posted.
Personally, I think it's because a lot of the prime time games have sucked. [Reply]

By clicking and linking an article about a blown call, you are de facto supporting the NFL. You realize this, right? [Reply]
Then you have this little "predictive programming" nugget dropped by the head of officiating during the off-season.
For those ignorant to propaganda techniques...predictive programming is implemented by someone in authority. It plants a seed of suggestion...towards an event that hasn't happened yet. When the event comes to fruition...those exposed to the narrative are more likely to accept a situation where, before, would have rejected it.

Care to provide some context to the quote? [Reply]

Even before the KC shit-show...I was over it. If its not legit, it's just trash theater for the minions. I have better things to do with my Sundays than watch an hour game wrapped in two hours of commercials. [Reply]

Well, now you have more time to dig that system of bunkers in your backyard. [Reply]
