I thought of a new blog idea. I will not do this on some sort of schedule like hiya wants us under. This is about Pac-10 refs. Sometimes refs make bad calls, but this is a whole conference of refs and video reviewers that cannot do their job. If I was the commish of the Pac-10, I would have fired every ref/replay official involved in these games that I will show clips of. Seriously. Pac-10 officials suck.
And this is why they suck
If a Player on Team A has the ball, possession does not go to Team B, morons

I don't think there is another person in the country more incompetent at doing his job more than that ref over their looking through the pile. Well, maybe...

But seriously. What is the ref doing. They called it Oregon ball although Oklahoma clearly has the ball and an Oregon player clearly touched the ball before it went 10 yards. Well, at least there is replay to save them. No wait. The booth ruined it too. How does anyone screw this up. This is Evidence A on my court case that throwing bottles at refs should not result in ejection. This ref cost Oklahoma a game and possibly a chance at the championship. Whomever that ref is should be above Bartman in sports idiot moments. What a moron!
If the Hand is under the ball, the ball can't touch the ground

Agh! The hand is clearly under the ball. Every replay shows that the ball never touched the ground. Ever. On that play, the ball never touched the ground. The Big East refs who were on the field got the call right, but the Pac-10 reviewers up in the booth found a way to screw this up. As a Notre Dame fan, it makes me nauseated just watching this replay. I lost my voice yelling at the TV because of this crap. If someone who had a normal job was that incompetent, wouldn't they lose their job? I'm sure this ref still has his easy, high-paying job. What a joke...
When the Knee, Hip, Thigh, and Arm are on the ground, the runner is down, geniuses

Sadly, there was no picture to go along with this traveshamockery, but the video tells the whole tale. Yvenson Bernard (pimping name btw) had his knee, side, hip, arm, almost everything down including the ball while under control. Of course, the refs screw up the call by giving it to Washington who returned it almost 40 yards. The replay official must have been taking a bathroom break, if he is smart enough to use it all by himself, because there was no review. Good thing Oregon State won this game, or else these refs wouldn't be with us anymore. Meh.
Now this one is just embarrassing

I mean. C'mon. He was never touched. That's one of the worst calls I've seen. No further questions.
And how does a field goal that goes through the post become no good?

That's just sad. Refs stand under the posts. That means if the ball goes on over the shoulder that is closest to the post, it means its in. God, it feels like I'm talking to a fricking three year old.
At Least Arena League Players Know What to do to Refs
lolololololmaoroflmaololol. That ref was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The funniest part was the ref having no idea where he was when he got up and called an illegal procedure or something...lqtm.

Report Offensive CommentI have more of a gripe with Big East refs. They call everything against Pitt and Marquette gets all the calls.

Report Offensive CommentI like Big Ten refs. They just don't call all the fouls. The reason why Pitt gets calls against them is they are more physical than Marquette. Also, the only blown call was the Nova-G'town foul.
