Saint meltdown

[CCTAU]

Maybe the motherfuckers ought to be worried about how shitty they played the rest of the game.  Don't ever put yourself in a position to let the refs/a bad call beat you.

Fuck'em I'm glad they are melting down.  You know what else?  I hope New England wins again so I can hear more whining about how unfair life is to everyone else.

ROH TAHD!

NFL to consider making PI reviewable. 

GH is right. Knee jerk overreaction.  You could call PI or holding or SOMETHING on every play. 

It’s asinine to think as Saint fans almost universally do that the game was rigged because of that call.  The only way it was rigged is it all the plays before were scripted, if Payton was in in on it to call that play, Brees was in in on it to make a crappy throw and the Ram DB was in on it too. 

But if you start allowing penalties to be called from the booth? Then you are actually on the road to where rigging can occur.

It was a bad call. It wasn’t, as Saints fans insist, the apocalypse.

Never mind the non calls in the other direction earlier in the game that were just as blatant. Notably the two face masks. Those took away points from the rams which would have made that non call PI not even really matter.

That pass wouldn’t have even mattered if all the other calls had been right....the other team can play the woulda coulda card too.

The false narratives are extremely similar, actually.  

A "friend" sent me this picture of Nathan Phillips (the protester at the center of the Covington controversy) with this screed about how he was a Vietnam veteran who didn't have "bone spurs" and went to war for the country that discriminated against his people.  And how he banged his drum peacefully before being accosted by Pro-Trump youth...

None of that is true.  

Then tonight in a hotel bar I heard two Saints fans commiserating, having accepted and entire false narrative that's just as outrageous.  

One referee prevented the other from throwing a flag because he ran screaming "bang bang" at him. (False).  The lawsuits filed against the NFL have a good chance of succeeding because they can prove one referee used to play for the Rams and another lives in LA (false).  Because of that they might have to delay the Superbowl until it gets resolved. It might go to the Supreme Court or there could possibly be Congressional hearings.  Either way, there's a chance something could be done.  It's not over.  Definitely going to have all pass interference calls reviewed from here on out. 

The longer that went, the more outlandish it got.  Could they force a complete game do-over?  Would they just let them start from the point of the penalty?  

I wanted to punch my liberal friend in the face.  I told him point blank that his entire narrative was bogus and he lost his mind and just started ranting about how Trump was destroying civility.  

I wanted to punch the Saints fans in the face.  I interrupted their bellowing to say I didn't think the ref was shouting "bang bang."  They lost their minds and started bringing up replays they apparently had saved on their phones.  

World gone crazy.
