Think about how Seattle felt with their SB they lost to the, wait for it...  squeelers....  

 

You got to just assume that you're gonna be not getting any calls untill you hit that level of awareness that the 'boys, giants, squeelers, packers, and pats get...

 

I mean, at a more micro level, think of the types of hits that BB5 takes and gets no calls versus how refs coddle the high end QBs...  To say that at some level the big markets DON'T get some sort of leniency is to ignore how things have been transpiring for multiple decades.

 

Again, 2 SBs come to mind quickly.  The AZ/Pitt and the Seatlle/Pitt SBs of the 2000s were pretty darn shady...

I know that Hawks fans still complain about being robbed of that SB in 2006. But then again, Jerome Bettis was playing his last game and it was in his hometown of Detroit so it would make good publicity. Luckily for Seattle though they got their SB 8 years later but still...

 

 

And remember that bogus PI call against Brian Williams in the playoff game against Pittsburgh? Along with the fact that Hines Ward was holding his jersey and facemask. Pathetic. Luckily for us, the Jags were just a far more talented team and were able to overcome those bogus calls.

 

 

 

I still remember that Garrard "Fumble" against the Pats in 2006...we were robbed of atleast a wildcard spot.
