The Daily News1 It’s awfully hard not to watch the officiating in the NFL these days. Jim Harbaugh brought it all to light when he threw not one, but TWO challenges that he clearly knew weren’t even legal.
2 Last night’s touchdown by Seattle was one of the worst calls in NFL history.
3 It’s tough because football fans are addicted to the sport. It is like watching real Avengers to a lot of them. When they invest their time and money watching this sham, it starts to make them look stupid. Make no mistake: this is officially a counterfeit season written by the scriptwriters of Rollerball.
4 Maybe the fans should record something else, and the second a lousy play is called, change it up to “So You Think You Can Dance,” or maybe re-runs of “Dexter.”
5 Hey NFL. End the lockout. These idiots had about two months to train, and they are probably getting death threats.The real refs are trained for five years.
6 I haven’t really read about any of the issues in the dispute, just marginal stuff.
7 Paying a bunch of inexperienced scabs doesn’t play well with the NFL set, built originally with a blue-collar mentality
8 The entire circus of substitute refs is starting to look really ridiculous. They should have them enter the stadium in a clown car. A lot of it isn’t so funny.
9 People are finding out where these guys live and putting it on Twitter, Facebook, and all the other silly machines that have replaced our lives.
10 Serious injuries are occurring because players and coaches no there are no rules, so they have to win by any means necessary.
11 Somebody is going to get killed.
12 Just get on with it. Who wants to watch playoffs that were decided by horrible calls? This season is already a fake.
13 Moving on, Part the First: Okay I’m over it.
16 No, I am.
17 Moving on, Part Two: It’s already too late. It wasn’t poor reffing that cost the Niners their game the other day; they clearly weren’t prepared for the Vikings. They were out of sorts. Harbaugh throwing fifteen restaurant napkins on the field did a lot to show everyone just how serious it all is.
18 Bill Belichick grabbing a ref showed us just how Rollerball this thing is becoming.
19 Maybe the fans should boycott this coming NFL weekend. Don’t go to the game. Season ticket holders should have a class action lawsuit for selling us a fake product. Everyone in the nation should tune into PBS and put their money into public television.
20 Because this season is a sham.
21 As a Niner season ticket holder, I am appalled that my money is supporting this imbecilic situation, which should have been handled months ago.
22 Boycott unprofessional football everybody.
23 Let’s start a movement.
24 Our flag could be a replay flag.
25 We could completely shut the NFL and its greedy owners down.
26 Let’s make it immediate. No More NFL.
27 Besides, I want to get famous, like Joey Chestnut.
28 I’d rather watch a hot dog eating contest anyway.
29 Moving on, Part the Thoid: I’m up against the clock, and I don’t want an NFL ref at my classroom door throwing a yellow flag, so I have to make this a bit short. Here are a few more NFL replacement ref memes, and then I gottago:
30 Peace.
BOYCOTT THE NFL NOW!!!~H~
