These stupid F's are going to get someone seriously hurt.
It just might be DHB, the announcers just said it's a potential neck injury. I commented more on your post in the ATNFL thread though, but I'm just gonna copy/paste that here:

I didn't think they were as bad this week as they were last week, but that's not saying much. They still aren't nearly as good as the regular refs.
