Tough job, man. I'm surprised there aren't more mistakes with all the complex math involved. Only a handful of people on earth can understand & apply string theory. Cream of the crop right there.

What are you talking about bro....no one ever has taken a dive in boxing or gambled on games or taken roids and other illegal performance enhancing drugs or gotten caught doing anything illegal ever in sports....it's all conspiracy theories and even contemplating it means you have a small mind (aka you're a dummy)...

My favorite part is how the career gambler and former ref are spearheading the gaslight brigade.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.
Then you would also make a horrible official.
A players actions on the field either are permissible or they are not. This is determined by the rule book, NOT the feelings of the referee.

Here's a good interview with a Psychologist speaking about why people believe in conspiracy theories...
www.apa.org
It's a little long, but it's very well stated.
Why people believe in conspiracy theories, with Karen Douglas, PhD
Karen Douglas, PhD, discusses psychological research on how conspiracy theories start, why they persist, who is most likely to believe them and whether there is any way to combat them effectively.

Don’t think he’s been suspended. Yet.

NFL refs under scrutiny over multiple non-PI calls
The officiating crew that did not call a blatant pass interference penalty during the Chiefs-Packers game missed a similar call one week earlier in Atlanta.
Yeah, I am a conspiracy theorist. I don't mind it either, because sometimes I get the last laugh lol.
But i don't let talking heads form my conspiracy .
For instance, I have been keeping track of likes on this board.
Yet, not once have GRYPHONK been named in the most liked posts thread.
It's clear the powers at be are trying to do to GRYPHONK what guys like Simms, Cowturd and Flores did or are doing to Tua.
GRYPHONK'S the real victim man

One of my absolute best friends is a major conspiracy guy... he honestly believes the world is flat, and nothing we say can move him.
Like most conspiracy guys, he gravitates entirely to media outlets that confirm his beliefs. Great guy, but... sigh...

The thing that irks the $hit out of me is that they have a million cameras and a million eyes watching every damn play. Why not increase the types of calls that can be challenged by a coach or even from the booth? It could be fixed tomorrow without changing the time these games are played. The booth could have easily overturned the blatant PI in the Chiefs game if the league gave them the authority. If they really cared about player safety they could also choose to booth review every targeting call and expel, fine any and doc games if any player caught targeting. That would fix it immediately
We also have the technology to eliminate measurment issues and those stupid sticks (that I played with in the 60’s,) and whether a ball has crossed the damn goal line. The NFL could fix all these things tomorrow if they wanted to. The league bitching about refs missing calls or player safety is laughable.

See, now you are getting me started here bro. Go down the rabbit hole with me.
There are so many cameras and angles. Being a Dolphins fan, we should know. They are able to get the perfect angle and camera to see what color Ramseys cup is.
But, when we need to see if a Chiefs players 2nd foot came down on the white line or grass.... all of a sudden the only angles available are the inconclusive ones. I mean what happened to the overhead camera that could zoom in. Was it suddenly inoperable for that play?
Had thar been Kelce fumbling the ball, not Hill, there would have magically been a camera angle showing you Kelces nose hairs that would have been able to clearly show that was not even a catch
Sad part is, the NFL could highly suspect an official was profiting off a game they called, may even find evidence of it, but you’ll never see them let it go public. Protect the shield! Do a suspension and call it a day.
Well, I mean we've seen a few players get suspended the last couple seasons for betting on games.
You honestly believe none of these refs are betting on games?
