Gotta love the Patriot fans. It's not so much the arguing over bad calls and conspiracy theories and what not. It's who is complaining about them lol. The biggest benefitors of officiating since the "Tuck Rule". http://www.patsfans.com/new-england.../185409-league-officials-celebrated-jets.html
ur absolutely right, this is the biggest joke ever. I feel like bringing up that oakland div game in 01 and watch how fast their bitching stops.
how quickly they forget they have benefited from some questionable calls themselves. they way i see it is that every team has been screwed by bad calls through the years. shit happens it doesn't mean the league fixed whether its the tuck rule or a bogus holding call on vrabel.
all the complaining about that call on vrabel is stupid. honestly, i thought it was a weak call at the time, but it had ZERO effect on the outcome. if that call isn't made, the jets kick a FG. and then down by three, do you really think the pats are going for it on 4th down with 8 seconds left? of course not, they kick a FG, tie it up and on to OT we go.....
PFT is a tabloid site... why did he say I told ya to Tanny? Speculation is a fun thing isn't it? With all the rings those fagets have, they whine and bitch more than we and Raiders fans do.. its very embarrassing.
After the shabby treatment that the NFL gave the Patriots last year over unfounded spying rumours, nothing that could be said about "fixing games" would surprise me in the least.quoted from pats message board didn't beli admit to spygate?although with a very unbelievable excuse how much more founded do the rumors need to be before the chowderheads admit their team cheated?
Pats fans have a right to feel cheated after that game. After all the refs have been in their pocket since 2001 in a big way and for the game to get called evenly was an outrage! An outrage I tell you!
Wow, it gave me the creeps when I clicked on the link and found myself on the Pats message board - ick. That story is about as credible as the front page of the Weekly World News. Gimme a fuckin break - the Vrabel call may have been bad, but if the officials were going to help us win that game they could have come up with something a lot more helpful than that. It is pretty gratifying to hear the Pats fans grasping at ridiculous excuses like that though. SUCKERS!!!!!
Just watch there americas game on nfl network and they had the famous tuck rule on. There whole team is built on the worst call ever in the nfl.
Wow, what fucking crybaby losers. Off the top of my head: 1. the 82 snowplow game 2. Tuck Rule/Snow Job game 3. Ty Law Rule - Indy playoff game when the refs didn't call shit on the Pats killing the Indy recievers. It continued in the SB against the Rams. 4. Last year's Baltimore game.
also they were allowed to change the field from grass to turf a few years back in the middle of the season. another thing against the rules.
pats fans are freaking pathetic...they are not only cocky bastards but they are whiny bitches also...are they f'in serious complaining about this?? go F@@@ yourselves...your team has benefited from so many BS calls its not even funny....jesus that really pissed me off...
Let those mofos cry all they want. The pats fans are a bunch of bandwagon bitches anyways. They are getting ever bit bs they deserve. They weren't bitchen when the refs gave them the afc against the raiders. FU pats fans!
they changed the field from grass to turf after the jets win ther and poor little tom brady was all muddy and crying sitting there on the muddy grass......LOVE IT:beer:
They have got to be kidding! It's ok though,after the Pats don't win the SB this year again,over half the fanbase will be on to the next bandwagon.
Pats fans are idiots. Regardless, of Vrabel holding call, it was illegal contact if anything which is another automatic first down. How stupid can they be?
Were NFL Officials Celebrating Jets Wins Over Patriots Last Week? Posted Nov 22nd 2008 1:00PM by Ryan Wilson (author feed) Filed under: Jets, Patriots, AFC East, NFL Fans http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2008/11/22/were-nfl-officials-celebrating-jets-wins-over-patriots-last-week/ When the Jets defeated the Patriots in overtime nine days ago, it was a joyous occasion for all. New York had finally managed to win a game in New England, Brett Favre showed glimpses of the gunslingin' quarterback that prompted the team to trade for him this summer, and, above all else, that scoundrel Bill Belichick couldn't cheat his way to victory. Or something. A few days after the game, a YouTubes emerged showing various members of the Jets organization celebrating in the bowels of Gillette Stadium after the game, punctuated by Favre embracing general manager Mike Tannenbaum before busting out some Phil Savage-ry on the way to the locker room. All pretty harmless stuff, really. Today, though, PFT's Mike Florio speculates that the video has been removed from YouTube "because it contains images of one or more league officials apparently celebrating the win with Jets G.M. Mike Tannenbaum and others." Apparently, if true, this could reflect poorly on the NFL, an outfit that supposedly loves all 32 teams equally, even the Lions. Florio adds: On the surface, none of this looks all that bad. But, as we understand it, it's highly unusual for league officials to celebrate non-Super Bowl wins with the victorious team. And some league insiders believe that the longer version of the video promptly exited YouTube specifically because of the presence of [NFL VP of football operations] Anderson and [some unidentified dude who looks like Red] "Auerbach." Eh, he should've stopped after the first sentence: "None of this looks all that bad." And even if Anderson and "Auerbach" were happily shaking hands with Jets officials, so what? The NFL is a small community and everybody knows everybody else. Maybe they were legitimately happy for Tannenbaum. Plus, it's not like this took place at midfield after the game, it was just outside the locker room, supposedly away from the prying eyes of the camera. Nonetheless, I fully expect Anderson to fine himself for his actions and Roger Goodell to later overturn it. The earth will continue to rotate around the sun, Peter King will continue to pray to his Brett Favre Fathead, and we'll all get on with our lives. ========================================================
