I did and was just sort of reiterating it, because it's so true!

This guy nails it. I mean, c'mon. How often do you see refs get squeezed in-between a bunch of 300 lb athletes? Pathetically ducking underneath football passes that approach 80 mph? Getting hit inadvertantly? These refs are someone's grandparents in the offseason, for crying out loud.

So I guess the 45-year old black zebras are still OK? (not to mention that 'zebra' is seen as a derogatory remark against mixed-race persons).

I have a novel, rattling around in my head, with the premise being -- that referees are not real people, but clones. And that the secret organization which controls the referees literally control all major sports, by controlling who wins and who loses.
How many referees do you know personally?

Jason Whitlock doesn't exactly look built for speed, himself. He must not be a child of the West African diaspora.

I know--no refs! People can vote on plays from the stands. Gives a whole new meaning to home field advantage.

Ref Ed "The Buff" Hochuli is in better shape than some of the players.

Well, the refs can use what LEOs have used for years and works damn well, might I add.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
How many overturned calls involve the referee being too slow to get a good look at the play? Not that many - more involve the official being screened off by bodies or some change of possession play in which the player's knee may have touched the ground a fraction of a second before the ball came out, etc.
If Jason Whitlock is really concerned about this, he should endorse a huge expansion of the replay system to decide officiating.

One thing is for sure, black atheletes definitely can't run as fast as Jesse Jackass can shake down corporations for money. Jesse is the fastest!!! He's got GAME!

Ref Ed "The Buff" Hochuli is in better shape than some of the players.A writer to Patriots Football Weekly last year suggested the Pats recruit him as a safety.
The writer responding thought he might make the cut, but that he would spend too much time posing and flexing to make any plays.
