I hope the refs let the players decide this year's Super Bowl...

The NFL wants so so badly for their Golden Child media whore Manning to dominate so they can milk him for another banner year of NFL profits.

The Grossman jersey just won't sell well at Dick's Sporting Goods, nor will the Thomas Jones athletic supporter or the Desmond Clark knit cap.

Here's to hoping the NFL hasn't 'leaned' so heavily on the refs that we all aren't sitting here at 10:30 p.m. tonight discussing how the refs were crooked and how in the hell the Manning late 4th quarter fumble was called an incomplete pass.

Amen. For the integrity of the game, let's hope there is nothing fishy this year.

But your opinion means so much to me...:nopityA:

I'm still scarred from last year..............the worst officiating spectacle of all time.

PLEASE NFL.....PLEASE don't HOSE me again.

I do think the NFL will pull Manning through-but I'm guessing they may keep the Bears backers happy as the game should be close and the ratings should stay solid throughout.
-The days of SB blowouts are long gone with the ridiculous advertising prices being paid out.

BUT, TIVO and DVR will be pushing advertising prices back down from here out.

When the ref was named the games MVP you knew something was not right

But last year did lead to some funny doctored photos. I loved the one with Cower offering the ref money.

Please no phantom calls this year..calls that went against seattle last year

List of bad calls

-Missing horse collar call on Alexandar

-At least 2 fluke hold calls on the offensive line on -crutial scoring drives

-2 to 3 hold calls special teams that nullified good field postion without giving any visual evidence of the calls

-the cheap low hit call on the quarterback, he made a great tackle

-the Rothlisburger touchdown was not a touchdown, visual evidence clearly shows him comming up short.
