TA calls fair catch and gets clobbered, no call.

TA gets bear hugged by a linebacker, no call.

Taint taunts for 20 yards, no call.

It was the same the game before.

It goes on and on. Am I being real here? Are the Rams getting the shaft every game?

I think they missed a few, like those you mention... but it was nice to see Seattle actually get penalized some. It felt more balanced for a change!

The crew last night is my favorite off all them, except maybe Muscle Ed and Co. I thought they did a mostly fair job...except of course the Tavon fair catch no call.That was stupid.

The one they took back against Janoris Jenkins showed how competent they were.

Not the flop, that was obvious. He called fair catch on a punt and was hit and knocked to the ground.

I thought the refs did a pretty good job last night, actually, all things considered.

Yeah, other than the series where they called back to back to back to back penalties. But otherwise it was pretty uneventful.

I honestly think the officiating has only been fair for the Cardinals Texans and Jags games, every other game I find myself yelling at my screen saying wtf.

Though on that flop our guy was obviously thrown down late after the whistle, Austin's flop notwithstanding that should have been a penalty.

Jrry already has it as his sig.
It's a thing of beauty, I hope he's getting a hard time in the locker room for it, maybe have them help him get started on his soap career. :lol:

I recently learned that zebras and donkeys have actually mated and had hybrid offspring. The cross-bred animals are called Z-Donks.

A name that suits NFL refs perfectly after the shit I've seen from them this year. From this time forward, I will no longer refer to the refs with the slang term "zebras"... I will instead call them by the more deserving proper name "Z-Donks".
