So he was responsible for the deflategate controversy?...This should be interesting.

The only thing deflated in this game are the respective fan bases hopes.

Eh, crummy game of the week.

I'm sure the NFL tried their best to get other more qualified referees like:

Randall Beesley- the replacement ref who shook Jerry Rice's hand in the huddle, or the other ref that got his autograph before the game.

The un-named ref- who fudged a call so Steve Young would date his daughter.

Mike Pereira- "The former head of officiating for the National Football League says at heart he’s a Niners fan". He considers the 49ers the "team of destiny" (perhaps maybe if destiny means fudging calls constantly in their favor)...

Or maybe his father Al Pereira, who the NFL probably would consider most qualified of all:
"[A]n amusing story from Pereira. He grew up a San Francisco 49ers fan, as did his late father, longtime sports official Al Pereira. He recalled becoming an NFL official in 1996 and telling his father on the phone ... "There was a pause and finally he says 'Son ... Don't screw the 49ers.' "

And he never did.

I have always found Rams vs 49ers games to be tough, hard fought, down to the wire games! And the rams have had 10 days off to get ready for this one! So my hopes are high, the Rams will not disappoint the Crowd, and will Win Big!!
Or it's going to be a Verrrrry Looong Off-Season!

Kind of glad to hear that they're not looking for a big name just to make a splash...They need to get this right or the casual LA fans could really be lost for a while...Of course I and most of the posters here will be there regardless, but they really need the less than hardcore group in the crowd...

Bring a big suit case full of money for them Stan if you ever want a winning franchise. Or hire some prostitutes for all the refs and be sure to get some pictures for their wives at home.
