Green Bay Packers Lose Monday Night Due To Replacement Referee Incompetence

Well folks, it finally happened. The Green Bay Packers were the first team to be directly affected by the replacement refs. They had a win snatched away from, thanks to some horrible incompetence in Seattle, as the Seattle Seahawks picked up a win.

The video is not up yet, but I will add it when it becomes available.  Basically, MD Jennings picked off a desperation pass.  Golden Tate, who blatantly shoved Sam Shields to the ground to get in position, decided to put his hands on the ball after Jennings had it pulled to his chest.  That is not a simultaneous possession.  That is Jennings’ ball.

I will admit that I am a Packers fan, but there is almost no one out there who agrees with the call on the field.  It was the Packers interception to end the game, not a Seattle win.  The replacement refs finally took a game away, thanks to the fact that they are absolutely in over their heads.  If the real refs are not back on Thursday, I will be extremely shocked.

If you have the refs deciding the game, you have a huge issue.  This game should be protested by the Packers.  I am dead serious about that.  They should protest this game to the league.  It will not do anything but something was totally amiss.  The amiss part was how bad these refs are.

The Packers fall to 1-2 but they have been a martyr to get the real refs back.  Thanks, I think.
