[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 578193, member: 9364"] I don't think you understand what I'm saying, and blame is the wrong word. We lost that game because we didn't capitalize on our opportunities such as going for it on that 4th and short, receivers failing to reel in catches off their hands and allowing them to be intercepted, and just an overall failure in the first half to score TDs when we had the shot. So no, that's not the point. The point is, at what point does it become blatantly bad when an official lets a player on the field tell him to throw a flag, and then all the sudden decides, "oh, okay, yeah I can do that, it makes sense"? I know enough about officiating to know you don't ever let a player make that kind of gesture at you or whine about a flag and throw one because he says so. Everyone watching this game saw it, and it was a flat out embarrassment to the league. That is just major bull that has no place in sports whatsoever. Again, it's your job as a ref to make the calls and make them like you're supposed to, not let the inmates run the asylum. [/QUOTE]
