"Something was funky with this game."
The refs read the papers, and know who is "supposed" to win the game. This unconsciously affects their calls, and thus ticky-tack calls go against the team that is not supposed to win. In this case, that team was the Seahawks, and the game was close enough that those ticky-tack calls were absolutely critical.

I dont believe it. Why were those refs chosen for the Super Bowl? Everyone knows that Bernie Kukar and Ed Hocculi are the best 2 refs they have. Who was the dolt they had tonight?
