NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Yeah I’m not saying they are horrible, but the league can’t let this keep happening. I’ll just say it, at this point I’m not 100 percent convinced that if that was the Packers on offense there that the result would have been the same. The league opens itself up to that.

Brady also. Maybe Mahomes also. Reviews on these calls need to return

Damn right they do, the integrity of the league depends on it

Bad calls are just a part of being sports fans. I get it’s frustrating and some years are worse than others but WTF. It is what it is. There are certain things you sign up for as a sports fans and the human element of officiating is part of that.

The human element always favoring the Packers is not something I signed up for.

This isn't the 80's anymore. Reviews are a thing.

This stuff is just nonsense. And the ping pong balls being frozen for Pat Ewing and all those other crazy claims.

you don't believe in superstar calls?

To what end? They already had reviews for PI. That year football games dragged on well beyond 3 hours in too many cases. It’s a judgment call. It is what it is.

Your argument here is that Aaron Rodgers gets a super star call when he’s on the sideline and isn’t even competing in the play?

The refs intentionally made it a shit show by intentionally keeping the call on the field even when it should have been a clear reversal and those refs should have been fired on the spot for that BS. Now we instead get to see them miss crucial calls weekly.

You can treat PI reviews like the last 2 minutes of the half but it needs to comeback in someway.

If you don’t just flat out know that the Packers get more calls than anyone you aren’t watching games. I’m not even a Browns fan, but the league has a huge problem.

This is a lie. Did the league add challenges when they had reviews for PI? The answer is no so blaming that on games supposedly lasting more than 3 hours that year i'm pretty sure is a lie

I thought it was time of games getting extended. I didn’t remember that right. Here’s an article on why it was dropped. Pretty much nobody in the league wanted it anymore.

Too many crucial calls are being missed in the secondary. They need to fix this especially with DPI being a spot penalty. Can't have the offense getting a free 40 or 50 yards on some bogus DPI. Also cant have refs missing easy calls at the end of game that decides who win or lose. It just not right

It’s a knee jerk to a bad year for officials. I personally think the pendulum swung too far on DPI. I like it when the defense can play physically.

I agree which is why I think they should adopt the college rule on dpi. 15 yard penalty and leave it at that.

 

[DJ Fieri]

No.

You get criticized when you say the refs are bad at their jobs.

Talk about a missed call that impacted a game all you want.

Just cut the hyperbole.

This.

 

[DJ Fieri]

So, let me get this straight.

They are the best in the world at what they do, but they still suck at their jobs?

Cmon man.

Your expectations are just too high on this.

Pretty sure female pron stars suck and don't lose their jobs.
