The official 55.5 Over/Under poor referee calls thread for Nov. 13?

Think you could do better???  Put down the Cheetos, pick up a whistle, get off your ass and try to do their job... It's a huge difference between a split-second decision in front of 30000 fans (half of who will think you fucked up the call) and taking a few seconds to think about it, seeing it from 2 different angles, with 3 replays each, from the comfort of your sofa...

FIFA announced today they will be taking no further action against Figo. Portugal's manager is planning to appeal Deco's red card. No news on the ref, Ivanov. Three highly regarded European refs have had bad matches, Ivanov, Merk, and Poll. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw all three again.

The question should be how much money are the refs getting for calling one of the worst officiated games ever

I think the Pats are getting some bad calls. I'm not a Pats fan but some of these calls are like the Colts are playing.

The Officials sucked all year, but the better teams can overcome those mistakes.\n\nIn my opinion, the Touchdown was good. (Ball touched the white stripe), the Pass Interference was a close call that could of went either way, and the call on Hasselbeck for an illegal block was horrible.\n\nBut... The Steelers overcame even worse calls in their win over the Colts! \n\nBy the way, it's over a month old now.  Get over it.\n\n(but if you can tell by my user name, I may be a tad biased.)

In every game of the World Cup there has been at least one bad call (maybe more!) from the refs from the first game to the current game, they either taking sides, or they are to far away from the infraction, or they are simply incompetent! (Do we need more refs on the field?)\nThis is the worst refereed World Cup ever!\nAnd take that stupid ban-aid microphone off your chin, it ain't working

I think that for some althiemers has set in. For most sometimers has definitely set in. They should be called up by a referee council to learn from their mistakes in an attempt to improve their work.

I doubt it, I believe bad calls by the refs are just bad calls and not attempts to cheat......

I think the refs are just very biased. I don't think they deserve to be ranked as high as they are. They are over ranked but you have to go with what the polls say. I wish there was a way to change it!!!!!!!!!

The game was rotten.\n\nThe post game whining that's continued until apparently now, is worse.

For sure bad officiating like Holmgren said,"We knew it was going to be tough going against the Pittsburgh Steelers. I didn't know we were going to have to play the guys in the striped shirts as well."\nbad calls for the refs...

Well I think it's quite unfair to say that this batch of refs have been the worst in the history of the World Cup, considering that it's just a couple of matches and terrible calls that have ruined several matches.\n\nJust want to remind everyone that there has been plenty of fantastic officiating going on, but it's just that these are never reported or highlighted to us. It's only the mistakes that constantly make the headlines. I mean, look at poor Graham Poll! I know the guy made horrendous errors during the Australia-Croatia match, e,g, in handing out 3 yellow cards before sending the player off. But I don't suppose many are aware of how well he managed the other group games he had earlier officiated.\n\nSo don't be so hasty to say that the refs suck just because they err once in a while. I mean, they sure don't have supersonic eyes, and they're human after all. It's not as if any of us can even be half as good as him.\n\nPlease, give the refs a break.

A bad referee decision

Bad refs!! (Just kidding)\n\nUmmmm - We don't know. Personally - I looked at every single aspect (including ownership Bill) \nPhila has made a lot of changes in every different catagory.\nEsche has to go and he wants to go. / Nittymaki is a backup goalie who'se only playing because Esche's heart is not in Phila.\n\n*I'm only now beginning to agree that Hatcher has to go. / An enforcer was called up from the minors today and that's a damn-good indication that they're looking to get rid of their old enforcer - Hatcher.*\n\n**Peter did not skate tonight - he has the flu. The flu?\nOK - With-that Phila played their best game in a long long time... so this might be an indication of some captain-conflicts within the team.... / I have said since the season began that Gagne should be captain but Gagne held-out for more $\n*Peter is also having reoccuring ankle problems and the Flyer's new GM stated today that he's not untradable. / At the end of the season he's free-picking for any team.\n\nIn short - I don't know..\nBut I can say that I love these kids and I'm proud of them.

Every team gets bad call sometime, it just seems spurs are getting a few more than Dallas, but does Johnson have a deal with the ref no but maybe mark Cuban.  I think the winner of this Siries will take it but Detroit has a Chance if Rashead will kept his mouth shut
