It's been less than 24 hours since we all watched a Superbowl in which the officiating appeared to effect the outcome of the game in a way that favored a team with a better storyline. Most of us who are discussing this are doing so this with an eye to next season. The Patriots were effected by similarly abyssmal officiating in their division game on the road against the Broncos, and oddly the Steelers would have been too if the Colts had not self destructed.
I don't want to be discussing officiating effecting our 4th in 6 campaign next season. So the more we talk about it now perhaps the more note the media will take and hopefully the NFL will do something about it. OK? You want to bury your head in the sand and return to discussing things we cannot influence that are months away to boot like FA and the draft, be my guest. Just don't be upset if we do everything right and end up getting screwed out of a Lombardi because the officiating still sucks. It will if everyone just moves on - and the NFL will be ecstatic if we do.
