in the nba the refs will favor the better team, but the penalties there are for 2% or so of the total score or a change of possession (which only happens about 100 times a game), in football favoritism is just that much worse because (in this game), it could have changed each side's score by over 30%!! thats just two mistakes... bit harder to overcome than 4-10% score difference of bad calls (many more than 2 mistakes) in a crappily officiated nba game.
