Just because I am paranoid doesn't mean that someone isn't out to get me. My Bills played Denver last week. Malik Jackson (Denver) got up, after a play was over, and delibertly head butted Tight End Scott Chandler. He later got a fine, but no flag. The Bill farted near Peyton Manning and their were flags galore. I have been watching football for forty years, so cram you tin foil. There is a perception out there about the NFL, and they can try to laugh it away, but they do so at their own peril. And furthermore, tell me about the Tuck rule and snowblowing the field before a crucial field goal for Tom f'in Brady. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Star players have always gotten preferential treatment from officials, happens in every sport, regardless of the team those players play for at the time. It’s not right, I don’t like it, but it’s just the human nature of the refs (who are very human) playing out. It’s not some conspiracy.

The tuck rule is a bullshit rule. The NFL has several bullshit rules, including the tuck rule, and the bullsh-t on whether to count the play or make them replay it on a false start penalty, and the worst of all: the “break the plane for a nano second” rule for a ball carrier outside the endzone versus the possession a receiver must maintain in the end zone.

Yeah, the NFL has lots of problems. They have written stupid rules that make officiating much harder than it should be. But everyone is making zillions of dollars - they’re not rigging anything for TV rating revenue. Thats just silly.
