Every day leading up to the game is supposed to about what the competing teams accomplished. It ain’t happening. Guarantee you the Rams players don’t like it.

no player gives a damn. they get paid millions, win or lose. the commissioner doesnt care. he's a puppet who takes orders. the league did this to make you waste time talking about pointless crap. This game was decide long ago in a office. its entertainment, not competition

Re: The Good News (I know, I know)

I do not care about change unless the commissioner changes the outcome of this game. I am mostly agnostic about the refs calls during the year. They call some for us, they call some against us. But, in a playoff game, it matters. Our season was on the line, everything this team fought so hard for this year was on the line, the career records of all the players on this team were on the line.

The fact that the NFL admits it blew the call means they need to take corrective action ABOUT THE OUTCOME OF THIS GOD**** GAME.

THAT IS THE ONLY THING THAT WILL MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE TO THESE PLAYERS, THESE COACHES, THE SAINTS ORGANIZATION, TO THESE FANS.

If the commissioner did that, then everyone would begin to demand that every missed ref call be reviewed. Every player on every team would demand that the no-calls / bad calls be reviewed ... because the teams would know that the league might reverse the outcome of the game. So, why go forward with the game? Might as well review the play. Coaches should be able to throw the challenge flag and have a call reviewed ( maybe limited to certain type plays ).

Re: The Good News (I know, I know)

Just wondering what the reaction would be if the Rams get a no call in the SB similar to the one we had and they don't win the SB because of it!

The media would feast on that I think?

GEAUX SAINTS!!!

VAR is being used in MLS and will be used in Europe on critical game changing plays. Problem is the Referee has the discretion to call for it. Oh and i'm suffering with the Magpies this season seems we're back fighting relegation.
