Tony Corrente to Ref Pats-Broncos Game

SHOWTIME15 · Nov 27, 2015

Tony Corrente will work as referee for Patriots-Broncos

if memory serves me correctly, Corrente's crew likes to throw a lot of flags. there were a total of 19 penalties his crew called in the pats-colts game a few weeks ago. in one sense this is good because they are going to flag the denver DBs for clutching and impeding Gronk. but i expect a choppy game with a lot of stoppages.

Another late night. Sigh.

After Monday night's game, I would welcome even Ed Houchuli over Gene Steratore. Corrente can't be as bad.

Only if they take six minutes to huddle every time screw up a call like Steratore and his crew did.

Is it just me or do a lot of refs have Italian names?

More likely a bunch of OPI calls on us too

Union controlled, decent money, only have to work one day a week, the head organization is controlled by a small group of wealthy corrupt "business men" and are led by an even more corrupt "commissioner", and the job gives one the ability to influence billions of dollars in legal and illegal gambling...hmmm....

Corrente is AWFUL, although it could have been worse (Morelli, Blakeman, Booger)

Are there any refs that aren't awful though? Seems like anymore we have to measure levels of awfulness.

vinovich is probably my favorite. pats always win when he refs, and the broncos always lose.

Who were those refs who "fist bumped" each other after a Denver TD last year?

Steratore's doing commercials on the side now too....

Vinovich has a good crew, I thought Steratore did until Monday night.

I tired to forget, why did you have to go mention him

Is Booger Italian?

It's just a coincidence. Nothing stopping other ethnic groups from playing pickup basketball with Jets players at Rutgers.

Yes, someone should develop a ranking on which we can all vote. The "winner" will receive the "Ben Dreith Memorial Trophy for Officiating Incompetence." Maybe we could call it the "Benny."
