You are blaming the Rams for a egregious No Call. The real right the wrong event would be if both teams took out the Refs....
Show me where I ever said anything was the Ram's fault? I merely said they were the undeserving recipients of an outrageous gift.
So....should McVay run onto the field and DEMANDED that the Refs .call a PI? You think Billicheat would have done that?
Not my job to try to predict what Belichick would do.
Really....the Saints were screwed....no one denies that. But the Rams DID NOT DO IT. THE REFS DID.
That has been the whole point of the topic. Rules have become too complex, safety concerns, protecting players, etc., have made it impossible to play defense and is robbing the original spirit of the game, too many split-hair decisions about whether a foot touched a blade of grass or it didn't and the refereeing as a result has really suffered in recent years with 15 yard penalties over practically nothing (like taunting, excessive celebration and other pantywaist weeny sissy calls) or people getting bombed with egregious violations like in the Saints PI and the refs doing nothing. Hard to figure.
I like the Saints. I think Breed is incredible. But the Rams are in the SB. Let's let them play. Bad calls and No calls happen. The Refs are human. We need to let the. No Calls happen...Hating on the Rams ain't gonna change anything...
It's nothing against the Rams. It is against the NFL and the poor refereeing because they are the ones that put them there. I know the Pats have had a less than sterling past, but that wasn't the whole team, that was the action of an individual, I can't even say whether Brady was ever knowingly involved in Deflategate or Belichick in Spygate or exactly who, and I know a lot of people hold that against the whole team forever now, but neither of those events changed the Patriots winning ways, they were winning before and they are still winning, and while this season might be a fluke for the Rams, the Patriots have been the standard to beat for something like 17 years? People hate them because they are sick of seeing them in so many Super Bowls, but let's face it, they are NOT there because of some past or present cheating, they are there because they really are that good. And if they lose to the Rams, it will be a travesty, because the Rams never should have even made it into the game.
