The referee in the Super Bowl is.......

Cincy + Wilheim:
I see you whiners still can't accept the fact you were on wrong side of that Super Bowl. No flags on Steelers because they committed none to call never enters into your slanted views. Phanton h:nopityAld my ass..It was holding clear as day. The travesty was that Hawks were even in the Super Bowl as they would have ranked behind Bengals, Colts and Broncos who all were beat on the road prior to their SB Victory. Seabags nothing but pretenders from a patheticallyh weak division(just like this year) and were exposed as such.

Carey has more than earned this shot as he is a top tier nfl referee. However, I'd prefer the league not mention it a million times prior to the game like they did last season regarding the coaches.

Merely mentioning this story 100,000 times should convey the same message.

He is a ref that is black....not a black ref.

A big fan of Carey's and Ed Hockuli. I love when Carey says "Major Faskmask"

I forgot about the Taylor incident. Great job by Carey for not penalizing Pittman.

However, I am going to say it right now, if I lose my bet on the SB, it was carey's fault.

 

[FairWarning]

I think Sean Taylor was just "misunderstood" in that video. Actually wish Pittman would beat the crap out of that punk that game.

Agree with Woof.

 

[BoZZi]

the best ref in the league...always explains the calls very well

It was probaly the IND @ ATL game on Thanksgiving day. They called was running in to the kicker, after the punter kicked the ball and the ATL defender missed the block , hit the dirt and the punter landed on top of him. The Colts then drove down the field ,scored, and broke open a tight game .

As far as the games this weekend and the Super Bowl, these are suppose to be ALL-STAR CREWS officiating :lolBIG: meaning Peirera has a system where each official is graded during the year and only the best at their position will referee this weekend and the Super Bowl.

I rate Carey average , best of the worst.

 

[BettingFoodStamps]

best decision by far on the ref. wtg carey.

 

[sharky99]

Great choice, only thing I don't like is the different guys manning the different positions in the big game, there's a chemistry with a crew like a team and sometimes it's just not there if they haven't worked together in the past, Carey will bring them together, good leader on the field.

 

[bulldog77]

Back to the point. Carey is the best. Keeps in control of the game and lets the players decide the game. Doesn't allow a lot of extraneous BS from players which is important due to so much infantile behaviour by so many players today.

I see you whiners still can't accept the fact you were on wrong side of that Super Bowl. No flags on Steelers because they committed none to call never enters into your slanted views. Phanton h:nopityAld my ass..It was holding clear as day. The travesty was that Hawks were even in the Super Bowl as they would have ranked behind Bengals, Colts and Broncos who all were beat on the road prior to their SB Victory. Seabags nothing but pretenders from a patheticallyh weak division(just like this year) and were exposed as such.

If you re-read my post you will see I was just reporting what happened during the game and what was said by a large number of fans after it was over. I did not lose money on that particular game and the truth be known could not have cared less which team won the game.

I was simply pointing out that a member of Mike Carey's crew, Mark Perlman, who by coincidence wears the #9, the same # as legendary NFL referee Jerry Markbreit, also was involved in the Steelers/Seahawks Super Bowl controversy. So I posted about it to enhance the discussion.

Mike Carey is an excellent referee but that does not automatically make his crew all of a sudden the best officials availabe at their various positions. If this crew is a mixed crew then that is a different story but I was under the impression that the NFL did not break up crews for the post season (even the SB) to create so called All Star officiating crews.

My post was meant to just enhance the discussion on the topic about the team chosen to work the game - nothing more. I am not even passing judgement on Perlman's call personally.

In fact I have never been a "the game was fixed believer". I do however believe that some officials - just like players, can choke in big games and really hope this does not happen this year in either the conference finals or the SB..


wil.

 

[GilRenard]

Hate to piss in the middle of this love fest, but personally I think the guy sucks. Whenever I get screwed on a NFL game due to a bad call, him and his crew seem to be working the game. I've hated him with a passion since his poor officiating cost me a big money line bet on the Lions a few years ago up in Lambeau (the game where there was an intentional fumble and holding in the end zone but no safety). As someone else said, he's also kind of an ass when he has the mic as well (very overdramatic).

i want to see a game where it doesn't matter WHO the ref is...flag happy refs make me sick

Take your advice and remove them please.

the game in question was widely watched my friend and your interpretation is disturbing at best

 

[bulldog77]

'Disturbing at Best' You win the Drama Queen Award, Think of that...A Super Bowl watched by many.
Wil, sorry if I misread your observation.

The bottom line is that there were some fucked up calls in that game. No matter what side of the game you were on if you can't admit that, you my friend are one of the biggest ass clowns on this site.:finger:

 

[gynecologist]

I think he's the best ref in the league. Good for him he deserves it.
