After watching the refs hand Brady & Patriots a pass to the Super Bowl the last 2 years, and watching the blatant non-call yesterday, I think I'm going to skip watching the NFL for now...
Why bother?
The NFL obviously and unapologetically has preferred match-ups they want to promote despite true competitive results on the field...
I can cite at least 4 games where the Patriots get free penalties to save drives and keep them within striking distance. Last year, you had the non-TD by Pittsburgh on the last play that gave the Patriots homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. This year, you had a bogus QB roughing and neutral zone infraction to keep them alive in Arrowhead stadium.
I don't know how the sport got so shady...I don't think it used to be this way. But if you can't watch a game without suspecting some bias reffing, what's the point?
And there is consistent bias reffing!
But....I think the worst part might be the sports media trying to gloss over the blown calls. Some people in the media said their opinion, but it is obviously the stance of networks like CBS and ESPN to try and avoid saying anything negative about the games or the NFL.
So the NFL got what they wanted...Brady Boy and the legendary Patriots against big market LA.
Why even play the season? Just skip the ref-rigged games and pick which big market team will play the Patriots every year in the Super Bowl.
Time to invest these hours of my life into something else.
