I think NFL has gotten better, the whole challenge flag thing seems to be working.

But at the same time, I HATE that late flag crap, where a coach can whine and bellow and throw a conniption, all the sudden a flag gets tossed. Alot of that stuff is some of the most subjective stuff in the game, there were a couple unsportsmanlike penalties yesterday that never should have been called.

I really only complain about bad calls as it impacts the Lions — as someone up in the thread somewhere said, it’s enough to make me suspect payola is involved. This is not to say that some Lions punish their own team with stupid penalties (I particularly love the ones which change a 3 and out by the opponent to a first down). :’) BTW, Caldwell’s the new Lions head coach, and it’s going to be a disaster.
