Walt Coleman and crew won't be officiating tomorrow nights game!!!!! He's doing the Packers/Vikings and they are up to their old shenanigans. Gifted a Packers TD with 4 chicken**** penalty calls to keep Aaron Boy's drive alive.

So we have a better chance although the rest of the officiating crews are not much better.

[YardRat]

They've dropped 8 for 110 on the Vikings so far, the least penalized team in the league up to this point.

[trapezeus]

The refs universally get pats what they need. No reason to believe the NFL won't keep pumping its storyline to keep the fickle pat fanbase around.

Gene Steratore's crew tonight. Pittsburgh boy.

The complete crew:

R 114 Gene Steratore
U 20 Barry Anderson
HL 123 Ed Walker

[Mr. Miyagi]

Everyone on the crew anonymously received an undisclosed deposit in their checking accounts this morning.

"Just give it to them" again.

I'm just glad they didn't draw Terry McAuley and his Merry Band...

You think Steratore is a Steelers fan ?

Just asking

Is your question directed to me?

Coleman is indeed a punk. But Steratore is also a moron.

anybody remember a game vs the Bengals about 4 years ago in which Stevie made an obvious catch on a key 3rd down that was called incomplete god knows why? We ended up losing that game on that huge momentum swing. That was Steratore.

You ,anyone.
We are in a fight with the Steelers for wild card.

I expect the refs to be in really good spirits tonight. Some dude just gifted them $125 million in his will, the largest amount ever given to referees.

Remember it well. Beautiful day and was watching the 3-0 Bills take on a rookie QB and receiver. Bad call for sure, but the Bills were brutal that game, especially the second half. Fitz sucked the whole game. Defense was all over Dalton/AJ Green in the first half but they found their stride after halftime and the Bills could not stop them.

You beat me to it. That game immediately popped into my head.

Why??? The attendance at Bengals games was dismal and they had a new golden boy at QB. The team needed a boost at home and Spatafore gave it to them. I call him that because he reminds me of Vito Spatafore, a soldier in the Soprano crime family.

Go to 1:58 mark and meet Gene Steratore everybody.

Bet on it. If the Pats fall behind the bs will start.

[Joe Fo Sho]

This might have been the most poorly officiated game I've ever seen, for both teams. What a piece of ****.
