I thought I heard that. Although, I attributed it to CBS.

Sorry I didn't see your original post...once the game started I was parked in front of the TV. I thought it was just CBS at first, but people are saying that they also heard it on the WBCN (gil and geno) broadcast so that would negate that. The funny part is that when it happens the announcers are not affected by it, and then when it stops you hear the crowd but much quieter. The steelers complained that the colts were doing this a couple years ago so it wouldn't surprise me if it was true.

In regard to the refs, I can't wait for the weekly segment on NFL network with Mike Pereira where he explains the questionable calls of the past week...that should be entertaining. Anyone know when it's on? I wonder if the pats will get another apology letter from the NFL like they did after the AFCC last year.

The pass interference call against Moss was garbage, I'll give you that. There was some shitty officiating yesterday.

but to listen to Pats fans talk about it you'd think there was some kind of conspiracy against them. But it's a good thing the refs figured out they can't stop greatness, right?

Exhibit A as to why I hate the Patriots and their fans. Thanks homie.

There was def some terrible officiating yesterday, but i don't attribute it ot some conspiracy theory. I think it had more to do with the fact that they were in Indy with a new crew doing the game. There is usually going to be crap calls in a game, but usually they balance on both teams...yesterday the pats just got it all.

I don't think there was any direct conspiracy, but I'd bet money they were prepped before the game and the topics of the prep were the bad calls we saw. Polian has griped for years about PI, and Moss has a bit of a rep as someone who creates space for himself. I think it's perfectly reasonable to think this new crew was told to keep an eye on these things as part of their preparatory brief. And that prep planted a seed that became a quick trigger finger on the flag.

Paradisecity · 11-05-2007, 11:56 AM

I highly doubt this, particularly since the NFL had to apologize for the pass interference call on Ellis Hobbs that they incorrectly made in the AFC championship- a call that could have cost the patriots the game.

I smell vegas money.

I don't think it was a conspiracy against us, I just think it was incredibly shitty officating.
