By the way has the NFL apologized for screwing up the call on the fumble last week?

Great so we get Ed Hochuli who is a known degenerate gambler.

No apology. They actually came out and tried to validate the call.

Nope, the NFL stands by Leavy's call. They announced it on Monday

[Pakman]

Na NFL did not apologize for the call. They never will.

Nope, they defended it. They sent out their Joseph Goebbels (Greg Aiello) to say it was the right call.

Of all the NFL crews, Hochuli's is one the very, very few that I'm comfortable with. He had one major blown call, but he handled it with extreme class and his crew is almost always the highest graded in the league. I'd be worried if Ed was hurt and we got stuck with Triplett.

Luckily we survived two awful Refereeing crews and their bad calls, nearly all which went against us. I see a game with few calls. Hochuli's crew is one of the lowest in calling penalties. Appx. 13 per game.
