I couldn't care less about sports without actually being hostile toward them.  But, occasionally, I'll watch championship games in basketball and football.

Even I, in my general ignorance of pro sports could see that the refs in the Super Bowl were completely out to lunch.

I've heard announcers point out before that in championship games, the refs will either tighten-up the foul calling, or loosen up what they'll call - but they need to do it for both teams.

It seemed pretty clear that the refs were letting the Steelers get away with stuff they weren't allowing Seattle to get away with.

Like what? Let's be specific, here, if you're going to throw that kind of statement around.
