    I missed this one straight up. Usually there are mathematical odds that buck the odds of mathematic-mean or something. Hurts fumble for a touchdown really hurt it. You could see that the Chiefs were better practiced/coached. 

    sports, man

  2. what a stretch...pretty amazing to have three local teams make their respective championships (yes i am a union fan as well), but their losses have been real nutkicks...don't even know what i'm supposed to root for with the sixers at this point lol...

    Having been the victim of a game where refs DIDN'T call a couple penalties at the end of a game(WAS vs NYG) that directly affected the outcome, the call last night was still the correct call to make.  Could they have called more?  Sure.  Thats every game tho and not just SBs.  But refs do this all the time.  They let things go until a player takes it too far and then they have to call something.  Thats why they are there.  Players will take it further and further and will eventually get caught.  There are rules and players already get away with too much because the refs DON'T flag every play.  If the refs did then the game would be unwatchable.  We don't know how not holding would have made that play unfold.  Maybe if the Eagles D man had let it go it still would have been and incomplete pass.  So blame him for doing something that made the ref have to make a call.  Don't blame the ref for doing his job at that moment.

    sorry man but i disagree with just about everything you say here...one of us is a knucklehead i guess lol

    9 penalties all game, 3 by the chiefs (all line of scrimmage infractions, offsides). Not one offensive holding call all game. The defensive holding penalty called at the end of the game could have probably been called 6 more times during the game on other plays but wasn't. If you're gonna let them play, let them play THE WHOLE game.

    The Chiefs won and deserved it. Eagles lost on the fumble scoop n score and terrible punt coverage. The NFL got an exciting offensive competition. Doesn't change the fact that officiating in the league is terrible, and probably by design. I watched many other games during the season end on similar ticky tack calls. 

    this is where i stand on the issue as well...it was a penalty by the letter of the law but it had literally not been called all game--if it didn't affect the route it appears the refs were going to let stuff go...if you've played sports you know that a big part of it is figuring out where the refs are drawing the line and then trying not to cross it...

    also agree it didn't cost the game...defense and special teams in the second half were the biggest culprits

    only thing i'd quibble with is the "by the design" comment...i've said it elsewhere but i generally won't chalk up to malice what can be just as easily explained by incompetence...i think the ref probably just made (in my mind) a poor judgment call...

    Why are you so butthurt by that comment?

    The comment stated that he felt the Eagles are more talented in all but one position group, quarterback. "Position group" is not the same as "position."

    sporting interests make otherwise reasonable people turn into knuckleheads
