Pete Morelli and his crew pulled from SNF and reassigned to Pats/Eagles

[groundgame]

Morelli is excellent. After the Bag Job (Corrente), this a make-up call after Corrente over-did the Orders.[/QUOTE

This is the Anti-Fix. A Home Team, Regular Season, 10 Point Favorite does not justify back-to-back treachery. You will see Philly called for False starts for looking sideways at the opponent.
Oh, BTW, Morelli was the referee for New England's last win at Denver (11/02/2003 / W 30-26). The game was highlighted by an iconic play, whereby Pat's long snapper, Lonnie Paxton, hiked the ball back to his own goal post, for a self-imposed 4th quarter safety.

An appropriate punishment for any of these failed ref teams is to banish them to local european soccer games where the "Soccer Hooligans" can have their way with them if they f.. up on that stage..

This move is infuriating to me. If I were a fan of the worst team in the league and a crew was "demoted" to my team's game I'd be infuriated. WTF makes one game/pair of teams more deserving than another of being subjected to an admittedly inferior officiating team? If they're not good enough for one NFL game, they shouldn't be good for any of them.

More evidence that despite all the rhetoric, there is no "integrity" in a league that tries to hold players accountable if they violate the "integrity" of the league..

Goodell's contract ends in 2018. I really really really hope that he doesn't see a day past that as commissioner. Of course, that might mean ****bag Kensil being commissioner and that's equally as f*cky.

If Goodell is extended beyond 2018 I will know that the entire league is corrupt and not just the front office.

No chance in hell Kensil becomes the next commissar.

My money is on Leiweke.

These refs would be stupid to do this in Foxboro, although, the NFL league office is pretty predictable now. If the refs do that same they did in Denver, I call for Patriots fans to storm the field, kidnap the refs and hold them for ransom...we will release the refs for our picks back and Crapdell's resignation!

Lol, Goodell would just tell the Pats fans to shoot them.

The owners wouldn't ever be foolish enough to promote Kensil to Commissioner. Well, on second thought...

I hear the NFL is bringing Phil Luckett out of retirement to handle the coin toss duties for the game.

THIS! 10000000000% this!

Maybe Pete Morelli officiating crew wasn’t demoted after all
