Oh no I agree the should have lost... I'm just complaing about the ref's and the rules...

There has been some of the worst calls by refs that I have ever seen this year...

And instant reply is supposed to be a tool that helps with those stupid calls.. And then to make a rule where you can reply a call like that is just well

And what about that early call with Tampa where they though it was a fumble... HOW BLIND CAN YOU BE!!!!!

Did you also notice that at the start, the ref, while miked and heard by a few million people, stumbled on his lines and actually asked who the home team was... on the p.a.... so North America and the world could hear his stupidity

This wasn't the worst officiating job this year, by a long shot. Of course, Gannon did a good job making sure the game wasn't in doubt for most of it.

- The fumble call early on was ridiculous, and could have had a big effect on the game (as it was a waste of a challenge).
- The Raider's 2 point conversion was a botched call, but then again officials don't have slow motion and 5 replays. Although I was rather annoyed by how vehement the back judge was at calling it incomplete, when both side judges ran in (I think) saying it should be been complete. The back judge does not have a good vantage point on such a play.
- There are a lot of things that can't be challenged. The coaches don't know all the rules, and some of the refs don't either.

- Shania looked very good. I was very disappointed that she lip synched. I've heard her live and she puts on a good show. And really - like we're not going to notice?
- Gwen and Sting were pretty good.

...and just what is up with the rioting? I'm not even going to call them sore losers, because it goes beyond the game at this point. They (the rioters), are just a bunch of pathetic low lifes. The fact that they'd attack their own city shows how much respect they have for the city/team/themselves. And the really sad thing is, that the rioters are actually proud of it.
