Goodell and refs to testify under oath about infamous no call

This definitely crazy. How many penalties in any game noticeable or unnoticabky can you call in any game? All cost a team a possession or potential points. Will everyone get a lawsuit cause every team has had non calls that could have won them the game.

Let's not forget about the NFL carrying their sorry asses to a Lombardi for that post-Katrina feel good story all the while those filthy swamp rats were putting bounties on opposing players while Sean Payton ate pain killers like Skittles.

So, what are they going to say? "Sorry, refs are human, they make mistakes, part of the game. Can't do anything about it.." 

Which is, of course, basically the email they send out every Monday during the season to teams about blown calls.

As awesome as it is to see Saints fans cry  I wish Jerry Richardson and Charlotte would have stood up for Cam the way the game was rigged in SB 50. That game was called much worse.

You have to understand whether or not you're going to be able to actually win or whether you're just going to end up looking like a whiny douchebag. You gotta have an absolute smoking gun to be able to prove ref manipulation.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
