Bill Vinovich ref for Saints-whiners

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Bill Vinovich has been a decent, no-nonsense type ref as far as I've been able to tell. I tend to think he calls a straight-forward game. He doesn't make sh*t up like McAuley or Hochuli or Triplette....

Hochuli is one of the best, if not the best, officials in the NFL. He's a practicing attorney and always explains the calls thoroughly. As far as I know he's the highest regarded ref, as voted by the coaches.

I doubt the Raiders voted for him!

"Guns" Hochuli gets undue criticism; he has been among the best in the League...

The most overrated was Mike Carey, who's games were among the most lopsidedly called; the guy even lost his coin before a game for the coin toss...

That's some pretty pathetic sh*t right there...

One of the worst moment though was Referee Phil Luckett's Coin Toss Gaffe with Steelers Bettis; though I enjoyed some schadenfreude as the Steelers usually get most of the calls in big games, that was pretty bad...
