By the way, #60 is Gary Cavaletto aka the Weasel.

Al Riveron (EVP who contacted Payton after the game on blown call) side judge Patrick Turner & Gary Cavaletto need to lose their jobs.

Totally unacceptable.
The whole official team should be bumped down to referring peewee football games. Make a call like they did at that level and a dad will point out your mistake in the parking lot.

I wouldn't want to entrust the health of my son or daughter to one of those morons. I don't know if I could trust one of them to take out the trash from a Subway restaurant.

Rams owner has been pulling fishy behavior since they first moved to St Louis.

I won't be watching the Panty waste and the Lambs screw the NFL.

The main reason why that article will not be used by the Commissioner is the precedent it would set.

Agreed, and my dad and I were having a conversation about just exactly the examples you brought up.

As for logistics, not only is is there plenty of time before the Super Bowl, but if they did this thing right, the game would only need to be replayed from the point of the foul. They are all going to cry about there being no precedent for this, but the fact is there needs to be precedent. It's time for the NFL to learn how to make something right, instead of allowing controversy to ruin the game.

Here's an easier way. Do just before the Super Bowl. Put 1:45 on the clock bring the Rams and Saints out. Winning team stays and plays the Patriots.

Well, the Saints' owner doesn't have any balls in the anatomical sense, so hopefully that will help.

Hopefully the New Orleans media will make Roger G wiggle & bobble with difficult questions @ the Pre SB presser all of next week.
