Regardless of how & why, two OT Conf championships suck?  You younguns don't know what NFL entertainment is.  Try to step back and realize how tense & dramatic the 2 games were. 

 

Rams opened -1, now +2.  Sounds like y'all can make some easy $.  Reverse tease the game and get some good odds.

there were several unacceptable calls in both games that went against NOS and KC. It's not that I'm a NOS or KC fan, but when the bad calls are that lopsided, it ruins the games. In addition, the wild card and divisional rounds were the least entertaining that I could remember.

overall, this post-season sucked donkey balls

 This has been going on since the dawn of time . Saints got jobbed. I get it. Pats game wasn't determined by the refs IMO. Putting calls aside I was very entertained yesterday

from what i saw yesterday, any of those 4 teams could have had legitimate gripes if they lost.  

 

i think there has been some "massaging" for some time, part of which can keep games entertaining.

I don't think officiating has gotten progressively worse.  People have selective memories and whatever happened yesterday seems bigger than things that happened years ago. It is the same with politics; every new president is the worst evah!

Again, Superbowl 40 had at least a half dozen monumental bad calls that affected the outcome of the game.  The Saints had two bad ones yesterday and the timing of the last one is making people over-react.

and this, despite the league claiming the refs getting more training.

My frustration isn't just the refs. I confess to being biased in wanting KC to win, so why HC wasn't calling time outs to rest and substitute DEF players on that OT drive is the kind of thing that would want me to want the coach fired. I like Reid, but I think his age took his toll at the end of that game. He looked asleep at the wheel.

 

I feel the same. I wanted Andy to win it so bad. But it's the same old Andy Reid. He's learned nothing over the years and his clock management is atrocious.

shoot...i was a young 9er fan watching a terribly officiated NFC championship game vs the skins (83 season) at rfk.  sloppy, sloppy game (mud).  refs made several bad calls on ronnie lott presenting the skins with the game winning fg.  montana had a wonderful 4th quarter.....

 

anyway... while "massaging" wasn't on my radar, impactful officiating has been around for a while.

Payton mentioned something along the lines of being able to review PI. More review will make an already long game even longer but if they can incorporate it where it doesn't delay the crap out of the games and has a cap for how many times you can do it, ill be all for it. A major miss like yesterday may be just what it takes to make that happen . It would have to be capped though. Maybe you get one a game and its up top the coach when he wants to use it and burn it. You couldn't have a stoppage  every other play

I hear that. I watched Deion Sanders maul Michael Irvin in the championship game against the 49ers and get away with it

sanders mauled wr's while on several teams, including the boys.

 

...and MI made career on the offensive pushoff.

Anybody saying the games sucked are morons, I don't care if you are 10 or 110. Some bad calls, yep. Pats who are universally hated (except by their fans) in another SB, makes me want to barf. That doesn't mean the games sucked, just fans unhappy with the results.

Both were amazing games. 2 OT Championship games, what more could you ask for?

Id ask him to wait 5 seconds

Reminds me of the summer in colleges when I was mowing lawns for extra cash.  An especially nice looking woman invited me in for a glass of tea.  One thing led to another, and I find myself having sex with her bent over the kitchen table.  Suddenly, we heard the front door open, and she said "That's my husband, quick try the back door!".  So that's what I did.  In retrospect, I should have run out the back, but you don't get an offer like that every day...
