NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans

Gonna get on my SoapBox, again, irregardless if it annoys some, most, or any...

First, have no problem, whatsoever, unmasking a NFL game official by name and calling him out for a poor officiating performance, especially in light of what happened yesterday...

The NFL makes those names public, he/she knows they're on a nationally/regionally televised broadcast; they know for what they're signing up for in the gig...

And it's all good to email, twitter post, or for those that actually still write letters, memos as I still do, to contact media outlets, the Saints offices, or NFL offices to state a grievance about officiating...

But to post someone's Home address, telephone number, where their children, grandchildren, spouse live is totally not acceptable...

Let me just throw this very plausible scenario out there for you...

Suppose an eminent threat is made to that individual with location referenced - it then has to be investigated. Local authorities (resources) will need to be called in to asset the threat...

During the course of the investigation online media is discovered, that's over the wire and that brings in Federal Authorities (more resources)...

Best case scenario, nothing becomes of threat to individual or family...

But valuable resources will be spent on an investigation that must have closure - remember the scene in National Treasure where Harvey Keitel's FBI character says "Ben, someone has to go to jail"?

That's an example of closure, these guys don't appreciate their time wasted on an idiot when they need to be doing counter-terrorism...

Example of Who's Affected by Your Careless Actions...

First contact Feds will need to make will be to the owners and administrators of a site where that person's address was disclosed...

So now Halo et al will have to spend uncompensated time to cooperate with authorities...

That means he's not taking care of his existing business, but is not available for new business opportunities; no he doesn't get lunch and an ice cream under the pressure of non hindering an investigation...

So just factor that the next time you take things to far...

Look, I was as jacked-up for this game as I've been for one in a long time; and, Like many of you I was equally devastated with the loss...

We all have crap that eats at us daily and the Saints take that away for a few hours on gamedays...

But don't, Don't, let it all that irrational crappe wrap-up and define you into terrible mistakes that will affect others...

Thanks for hearing me out on this...
