Thanks! I was eatin' when that picture came up. It was pretty good too. Then that picture comes up. Matt Millen is an ass hat and should be forced to actually do some good for this world. Cleaning porta-potties or something like that.

Anyone know which teams got screwed and actually has Ed Hochuli?

Ed's crew doesn't work this weekend.

The chances of us getting "Ed-bowed" relies on a Saints victory and dumb luck next weekend.

I wish there was some way we could know why crews are assigned the way they are.

It's like the officials are employees of the CIA or something. Total secrecy.

We SPEND the money to keep the league alive. We GET what they give us.

Seems wrong to me.........

Sorry to disappoint you, but WE do not spend the money to keep the league alive. The networks and advertiser do. We'll watch regardless.

la,la,la,la,la,la,la,la . . . I'm not listening . . . that knucklehead was a train wreck, after seeing that picture I'm going to have go stare at foreverfan's avatar for awhile to get the image out of mind . . .

go Lions.

I think it's a sad state of affairs in the NFL when fans/teams are shopping referee crews.

But it's just a reality....

I wasn't talking about the jerseys and such that I buy.

I was talking about the televised games not being as important as they once were.

If I didn't have the live chat on this site, I would gladly go to the gym, wash my car, help my mother etc...

I am happy to watch (regular season) games on DVR and skip every single commercial along the way. It is often convenient for me to do it that way.

Something should give on their side. That's all I'm saying.

I tell you what, if the officials start causing trouble, we'll get Brandon Pettigrew to kick the their ass!

I don't think I've ever seen a player hit a referee and NOT get ejected. Come to think of it, besides high school football, that's one of the ONLY times I've ever seen a player hit a ref period!!!

Same here Halo. I was absolutly stunned when I saw that. I was even more stunned when he wasn't ejected.
