From what I've seen so far, that could be worse than the current situation as we'd be seeing new refs every fugging weekend.

Fair point.

I'm a big proponent of having full time officials but I kinda doubt the referees union is ever going to allow that to happen and the NFL doesn't seem willing to force it.

I like the idea of accountability, though. I'm not banking on it happening, but it would be nice to see some.

The problem I have is that as biased as the current batch of refs are, either for/against certain teams/players or towards/against home teams (talking hochuli and his ilk here), I think those reviewing them will also be prone to those biases.

Stuff is too open to interpretation, which it shouldn't be.

Don’t understand how it’s gotten so bad. Or maybe it’s always been like this but now with all the technology we have it’s easier to highlight their screw-ups.

Would not mind seeing the Aints getting fugged again

Well if you listen to Raider fans, it's been lousy since the 1972 playoffs.

I didn't really notice until the replacements came in and were obviously horrible. I kept waiting for the day that the real ones came back expecting it would be better. 

It wasn't.

In the world of it could be worse, it could really be worse. And it once was. And it was once even worse than that, we just didn't realize it.

I really think it is getting better, but we now have sooo many angles, so many nuances in the game that it's nearly impossible for any human to correctly call a game.

Well to be fair, at least with the regular refs none of our division games were being officiated by rival fans.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
