TAMPA, FL—Sarah Thomas, the first female referee to officiate in a Super Bowl, threw a flag on a play in the second quarter but refused to say what was wrong.
"Penalty, on the offense -- you know what, never mind. It's fine," she said after throwing a flag on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
"Wait -- what'd I do wrong?" asked Tom Brady indignantly.
"Nothing. I said it was fine," she said, folding her arms.
"It doesn't seem like it's fine. You threw a flag!" Brady responded.
She shrugged and turned away. "No, it's totally fine. Go and play football with your friends. It's fine."
Play proceeded without any consequences, though she glared bitterly at Brady throughout the next few plays.
Meanwhile, the male referees displayed their toxic masculinity by awarding extra yards for players who exhibited unnecessary roughness and also giving them a manly chest bump and a "right on, bro."

This was a Babylon Bee gold medal winner. So true that I initially believed it.

While I know this is satire, she did call an interception by the Bucs an incomplete pass. Replays showed that the ball never touched the ground. The Bucs didn’t challenge, and it was never an issue.

The refs were actually brutal on the Chiefs in the 1st half. If the Patriots were subject to the same level of scrutiny on defense in SB XXXVI, Brady would have lost that game.

Did anyone else see the sideline play where the player refused to toss the ball to the female referee marking the play? He deliberately tossed it to someone else.
Racist. sexist players!
Last five minutes of 4th quarter.
