That’s twice now our defense has been called on blatant non calls.

I'm starting to believe sports has been taken over by Vegas and the refs along with the leagues are all in on it. It's the only thing that explains such blatant favoritism the refs show all the time. It's made me stop watching the NFL besides the Panthers. Now I'm about ready to give up on the NHL.

With how low the viewership is for the NHL compared to the other major sports, the last thing they want is a small market team like Carolina in the stanley cup finals. They want teams with big name stars that casual sports fans will watch - Carolina isn't that unfortunately.

It’s time for new commissioners in every sport and perhaps a little DOJ pressure honestly. The inconsistency in sports is mind numbing at this point. Look at the GB TB game last playoffs.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
