I demand Ed Hochuli come out to “Real American” a la Kenny Powers.

It’s the only way this can be made right for America.

Here’s to hoping the regular refs make a couple of huge fuck ups this weekend. You know everyone is expecting perfection, which was not the case – they just looked great by comparison to the scabs…

Awesome, then I’ll want to kill somebody a little less when Cary Williams commits another fucking penalty. Jesus, I hate him being a Raven.

Kickoff at 8:20.

Honeymoon over at 8:23.

Welcome back non-scabs!

Kornheiser was the only one i heard say they’d get a deal done by Thursday… i laughed at the time…guess the old man can still bring it.

Missed you, Hochuli & Mike Carey.

But the bully coaches will still be bullies. Right?

Gotta go with Hochuli tomorrow night, right?

I would think they want a crew thats actually better than the replacements.

At least the game will be over before 1am tonight, so I’m thankful for that.

No way – he needs time to get the new Nike ref shirt tailored to fit the guns. My best guess would be an official that lives in/near Baltimore (Steretore is from south of PGH – easy drive for him).

They’ll select a crew as if they were officiating the super bowl.
One of them will fuck up and the former-player-now-announcer” will chuckle and make a “it’s preseason for them you know” comment.

At the end of the night, we’ll realize the game is not that much different b/c the players have to make plays.

…. and Steve Young will once again prove on live TV that multiple concussions do cause a person to become retarded.

Terry McAulay lives in DC so I’d have my $ on him calling game tonight.

Of course now local Baltimore radio saying report now is Steratore will have game.

/Fuck me and my $
//Really doesn’t matter, its the Browns.

bye bye replacements. you won’t be missed.

Oh good. So we can expect marking off 27 yards for a personal foul, a team getting extra challenges, and not properly applying the 10 second run off tonight?

We all know judgement calls will be missed, but if you think the real refs are “not that much different” than replacements when administrating and controlling the game then you’re in la la land.

Mike Carey is generally regarded as a solid ref, but his holding calls are far from crisp.

carey will be mnf i bet. national showcase
