Gibbs Fined

[56FAN]

i've really tried not to think about the officals but after that call in the denver game where the booth called brunell for being over the line of scrimage and yet none on the field did.i have a hard time not thinking that there's something funny going on.i have friend who is convinced that there is and that it's because of snyder. i don't want ot but these calls just keep coming.like someone said when holmes caught that screen holdman was right there but was held just long enough for priest to get by the he was released. the ref, was right there and didn't through the flag.maybe i nedd to check other games and see of this is a league wide prob or if it is a skins thing.

I started a thread about that very thing a year ago after the Dallas game on monday night, lets face it the league is run by the owners, and most if not all the owners hate Snyder, there is no way anyone is going to convince me that the ref's haven't been given a wink, wink, nod, nod, to make sure anything questionable goes against us. Over the coarse of the last 2 years I have seen not bad calls, but suspicious calls, where a ref will make a call from 30 feet away, that is almost none existant against us, and then watch from 10' away as Rod Gardners jersey is ripped off in the end zone on pass inter. which is not called, as Gibbs stated things are a little funny, yea just a little, it's also kind of funny how the NFL wont allow you to critisize the refs even when you have sufficient proof, in other words if the ref shows throughout a game that he's capable of making a tough call or none existant call against you, but incapable of making an easy call for you there's a problem, It's as if Vince McMahon is incharge of the referees.

For joe Gibbs to come out with that kind of a statement is huge, it was a kind way of saying, I really believe there's something going on here other than just bad calls, essentially challenging the NFL and their legitamacy, integrity, and honesty, as an organazation.

Did anyone find it suspicious on KC's first TD drive that we couldn't get a replay of the fumble by the sidelines which all the skins were jumping up and down that we got the ball? Kind of ironic that they wont show a replay of something like that, kind of tells me that the NFL really didn't want anyone to see it, I wonder why?

i just actually watched the replay and if someone else recorded it you can see inbetween renaldo's legs that the priest hits the ground the ball pops up, he was down but then daniels hits him as daniels is falling and turns Priest's body and the ball come up from under him and it it gets its way into griffins hands, i still haven't seen another angle but i think the right call was made. I just don't feel that it is possible that we are disliked that much by the league that the refs would be skrewing up our games

if it is a conspiracy does anyone think now that gibbs is calling out the refs there will be an improvement??

okay, so if Gibbs makes $5,000,000 per year and gets fined $10,000 then it is like a guy making $50,000 per year getting fined $100. He'll survive.

Funny part is Snyder may just give him a $10,000 bonus for giving the after practive interview. No rule against that.
