to tell it like it is, no better yet, WAS...becuase mainstream media will not overly criticize NFL and its refs, especially concerning a game with superbowl contention...

1) That was not a 1st down dive by Thomas on 4th down.
2) That was not interference, besides ball was uncatchable.
3) that was not a catch, he trapped the ball between turf and his body.

Saints are not the real NFC contender for superbowl...shame on NFL for its OT rules and bad officiating and replay. The better team did not win today, gotta hate that.

As long as the ball is in the area they rule it catchable

There was no conclusive evidence to show that it hit the ground.  If there was they would have over ruled it

4) That was not a late hit on Brett Favre near the end of the 3rd quarter.If not for the Tracy Porter interception,that call could have unjustly altered the outcome of the game.

 

           

The better team did win tonight!

The worst call of them all was P.Thomas' dive for a first down.

Thomas did not have possession of the ball when he crossed the first down line.  When he regained possession, he was not past the first down marker.

The WR did not catch the ball on the long third down play.  He trapped it.  It was pretty clear.

The NFL got what they wanted today- Saints/Indy SB and Saints NOT covering the spread.  It was a win/win.

So you think the ref called up to Goodell and asked if he should over rule it or not? Your an idiot if you think the game is fixed. Why would the NFL not want their attention person Brett Favre in the SB?

Better team didn't win because of 5 turnovers.  Bottom line.

Should have been 10, if not for some ridiculously miraculous recoveries...Does that really sound like the best team to you??

I said this in another thread. Even though those 3 calls saved my ML bet on the saints, they were all pretty awful and all easy to see for the officials, yet they blew them all. It's a shame NFl games have to end like this.

 

Of course, I want to thank Favre for throwing that horrible pick to save my ass in regulation LOL

THATS WHAT I AM SAYING!! I didnt care who wins...football is my fav sport and for the refs to show their asses like that is disgraceful and embarrassing...the masses dont give  a shit becuase most are "casual viewers" or worse...homers. its a bullshit way to make an NFC champ.

because it hit the ground. It was easy to see. I mean, it's not like it bounced off the turf, but clearly it hit the ground while he tired to hold on to it.

Vikings made their own bed, but that's a shitty way to make sure they have zero chance even with their miscues.
