Conspiracy Theory? Confirmed
- Thread starter G- RUnit
- Start date
I dont watch any of their games but I'm sure it does happen when they play Michigan, Ohio St, Penn St., Iowa, Wisconsin.
People here hate Millen, but even Millen was outraged by that call on roughing the passer.
Forget if I posted in this thread or another. On the Final Drive on BTN- every single analyst laughed that the call was targeting, with J Leahy coughing "bullship".
Anybody claiming there was no bias by the Referees for MSU was obviously not at game or watching on TV.
Thought I posted this elsewhere BUT I could swear there was a stretch in the 1st half that went:
- missed facemask call on MSU
- missed facemask call on MSU (following play)
- missed interference/late him of Dremel (following play)
...then just a few plays later was the INSANE...PHANTOM....booth call of an intentional personal foul on Powell (who was ejected and had to miss the 2nd half).
I was LOSING MY MIND in the stands at that time and my good friends @Scarlet Shack, @PatrickRU92 and most especially @SirScarlet know how I feel about ripping officiating DURING games LOLOLOL!!!
*** we were playing like dog-doo, regardless, in the 1st half. The officiating would NOT have been to blame had we lost the way we were getting manhandled through MSU's 1st drive of the 2nd half.

I think (IIRC) the second "facemask" was NOT a facemask. the 1st one was blatant though.
fair enough...I may have skipped over that part of the game watching the replay lol!
Oh.. I know what's wrong with you. You won't discuss the obvious because it might make you look politically incorrect. How can you now have a question about how female refs got their positions and whether they are prepared to do their jobs well? Why is questioning that, after seeing some poor performances by the few female officials that are out there... how is that a signal that there is something wrong with those who suspect they were not the best qualified for the positions they have?
Yeah.. I know what's wrong with you.
The topic came up in this thread because of the comment about there being no female refs out there. Clearly meant to counter any previous discussion of female referees. I merely pointed out a bad performance by men is not a counter-argument to possibly poorly trained/experienced female refs being out there. There is not thing "wrong" with that. In fact, the poor performance by men indicates we need better trained and experienced refs.. some kind of quality control. Maybe we need all-female referee crews who were all highly trained so no male refs with long-established biases cannot adversely affect games.

Unconscious bias is a real thing.
It's why we consistently get hosed by the zebras
Will happen less as we get better and win more.

Every thread I open, I see one poster constantly calling out other posters. It's truly amazing, no one is ever right but him. One crazy sick person I tell ya.
