    Default Another NFL scandal - Referees fixing games

    We have CTE and the anthem protesters and now this. If you need your football fix, go college.

    After the Patriots’ come-from-behind, 24-20 triumph over the Jaguars in the AFC Championship on Sunday, an official walked over to the glove-less wonder and patted him on the back to get his attention. He then used the universal nice-job-man pat to the chest, congratulating the 40-year-old on clinching his eighth Super Bowl appearance. It was enough to gain notice of a few NFL players and enough to begin the complaints of every Patriots critic (meaning, every non-Patriots fan).

    After a game in which Jacksonville racked up 98 yards on six penalties to New England’s 10 yards on one, it made for a clip that instantly went viral, fodder for all those who think that so many calls go the Patriots’ way in big-time moments. It wasn’t even the first time the tin-foil hats were worn Sunday; after a second-quarter touchdown, another official was seen with a big smile on the outskirts of the team’s end-zone celebration.

    This season a number of questionable calls have gone Bill Belichick’s way — catches were made non-catches against the Jets and Steelers — and just last week, officials made a few head-turning calls as the Patriots ran away from the Titans.

    Of course everyone knows that for years the league has given weaker teams softer schedules and that is a form of rigging .

    Cheatriots are as crooked as a dog's hind leg. Calling back the Jesse James touchdown was the last straw. Al Riveron's an effing tool, he must have gambling debts.

    OH NO! The sportsball officials were cheating! How will I ever get back to some semblance of normal? Not the sportsball! Anything but the sportsball! Damn you, Trump!

    How about setting aside your Roethlisberger hate and reward Jesse James for making that TD.
