Winning is easier with 18 players on your team

If I did my job as bad as those officials, I would expect to be fired. Instead, I'm sure the NFL, ESPN, NBC, CBS, and FOX will give them a big bonus for keeping the NFC playoff picture together. I retire with Brett and never plan to watch a game again.

Horrendous officiating. Worse kick coverage and run-stopping from the front seven (who were held alot). No need to retire from NFL, you will never get to find out when your team is on the good side of the fix.

I am still crying from that terrible call against lil' Jenkins on Monday. This is very hard to take.

Facts:

-The call was not for a late hit, it was called for unnecessary roughness due to a hit to the back of the head. I have the analysis from Sportcenter on DVR, he barely even touched his back.
-Holmgren is 11-1 with that officiating crew.
-The lead official is unmarried.
-Hasselback is not straight.

Analysis:
-On a key third down, if you are not 100 percent on a judgement call like that one, you don't call it since the NFL can fine the player if it was a dirty hit. Therefore, something is up.
-The call was for a late hit on the QB. Maybe its not Holmgren the ref really favors.

Theory:
-The ref and Hasselback are having a secret affair. What happened in that one loss, did Hasselback get into a lovers spat with him?

Side comment:
-Brett Favre should have drilled the ref in the face with the ball on the last throw of the game, but he is better than that.
