As much as I loved seein GB lose  (Go Bears). We need the reg. back.
But Green Bay is to good a team to be in that position, to lose on a last second play.

That was a flat out joke. Jennings clearly had the ball but I guess that Ref had Tate on his fantasy team.
Those replacement refs need to go back to their day jobs.

We must remember the refs are Div 3 refs, which is pretty much high school level.
The real refs are being locked out by the NFL.

Oh ya I know, I'm just hoping this game will make Roger do something about it.

The 2 sides aren't close. This game is gonna give a lot more leverage to the refs. IMO

Both teams have the same disadvantage, the refs. So if you're gonna lose by 7, you shoulda tried to win by 1. Never put it in the referees hands, greenbay didn't play well.

Doesn't change the fact that they got refballed. The worst part is the league won't even own up to it.

I miss the good refs. I haven't been keeping up with it all, is there any end to the ref strike in sight?

It's crazy how many biffed calls I've seen in just the few games I've been able to watch.  Fortunately I'm a browns fan, so my team was gonna lose even if all the calls were correct, but still.

Not a strike, lockout big difference. It's the NFL owners who have locked out them out.
Both sides shoulder blame here, but its mostly on the NFL.

Didn't know that, like I said I've been a bit out of the loop. I'd just heard the refs wanted more money, and assumed strike. My mistake.  How's the situation looking? Any compromise in sight?

Nah, the refs want a pension plan. The league has offered a significant pay raise from what I understand. The league also wants 3 sets of officials who can replace other crews should they suck.
