I'd be done too. Especially with how flagrant that hit was, and how uncalled for. I mean, if they are suspending that Broncos player for his hit on Schaub, then they need to suspend that Steelers player.

Agreed but it is what it is, I wish the regular officails would quit whineing about not having a retirement plan for a part time job....

the best part about corn snake bites, other than them basically never happening, is that even when they do get ya, it doesn't feel like much. I held a pueblan at the new England reptile expo this weekend. (super fun! got a bunch of supplies but no snakes. I was tempted by a fire skink though

)
Not a full sized one, probably 6-8 months old if that, and he just held onto my hand and wrapped around my wrist. I stood there and talked to the breeder for 15-20 minutes until the little guy decided to let go. He didn't even make me bleed since my hands are basically all callous on the inside from power lifting without gloves (he somehow tagged the pad of my hand and got some meat to hold on to. He was cute, I didnt snag a picture though, completely spaced on that one.

I agree 100%... but after last nights game, and what happened there, the regular refs now have a key piece of leverage against the NFL... And I have a feeling they WILL use it.

Nope, the NFL sided with the officials in a release today. They're basically just insulting every bodies intelligence at this point. Im only watching because hockey isn't happening atm..

I read that. But at some point, the fans are probably going to stop going and once it gets to the nitty gritty, somethings gotta give. The NFL needs those refs more than those refs need the NFL, or so it seems. The more these replacements keep screwing up, the more leverage their union will have in negotiations. And yes, I agree, I do miss the NHL. I can't wait for them to get over this disagreement!

The only thing that will "make" them do anything (otherwise I guarantee they lock out the refs all year) is if the players (and they are starting to have a real case) decide to strike because of unsafe working conditions.

Its bad for everyone. The ravens missed that FG, The refs placed a ball on the wrong 44 yrd line in some other OT game, this end of the game "td" catch on monday. Its all over the place and just terrible.

Yeah but... You had Charlie Sheen pitching for you! And Wesley Snipes as your lead off hitter.... And Dennis Haysbert as your shaman homerun hitter!... We've had... Some 12 year old kid with a screwed up arm. And Gary Busey!
