Quote:One of the things that bugs me about this whole thing is the reaction from fans that indicate we shouldn't expect to get those calls.


Sentiments of that nature most certainly reflect reality, I'm not disputing that.


But innate, preconceived biases should not be written into, read into, or implied by or inferred from the rules.


The rules aren't uniform or objective if they vary from team to team.

The refereeing in the NFL has been terrible for the last half decade. It's the reason that ratings are beginning to finally decline.


The fact that fans are beginning to be numb from the clear ineptitude of it is an indication of the cancer that is bringing down the enjoyment of the game. A billion dollar corporation that does not employ full time referees that are salaried and focus only on thier profession creates an obvious weakness in terms of a sense of fairness and objectivity.


The NFL sucks. But the Jaguars suck more.
