Horrible Call

[House]

NFL refs do too, everyone football fan in the world knows who Ed Hochuli or Mike Carey is for good reasons. I wasn't really trying to attack your point though. I am just saying a major part of the problem is that the NFL is using part-time guys to do a fulltime job. Part of the reason MLB has better Umps across the board is that they are full-time employees and thus are expected to spend their weeks working on getting better at their jobs. It's hard to do that with NFL refs who are part-time.

Don't worry. I'm not getting defensive lol.

We know the head line judges, because they talk, and put names to faces. But they don't allow them to be accessed by the media. So they don't have to answer for on field mistakes. Blatant ones especially.

Just my personal pet peeve lol.

Absolutely agree they need full time refs.

If the Colts make a come back out of this, which we could very well do, only to lose by a score it will sting pretty badly.

 

 

Every possession matters.

I think part of the problem is the media doesn't want do it.  Again, they made the replacement refs the story because I think they wanted them to be a story.  When they have a chance to blast an official on talk radio or ESPN's 1001 football shows they don't do it not nearly like they did with the replacement refs.  I think the reason for that is that no one wants to be that guy that blames the refs. 

 

Also, it's much harder to just hold part-time guys accountable than full-time guys. 

 

With that said I think I heard some where after the world series the umps had a press conference you are right no way the NFL would let a Head NFL Official have a press conference.  Then again it's not like the NFL is the only that does that either, the NHL, college, and NBA don't either.  MLB is the one that is different there.  With that said, it doesn't mean what the MLB is doing is a bad idea.

Well based on that camera angle no way that gets over turned but wit this guy who knows...

[GoColts8818]

Can we all agree this guy is just bad now and drop the NFL is out to get the Colts argument?
