    And, apparently, you're entitled to attack other posters.

    I didn't attack a poster. I pointed out a foolish post. There is a difference.

    I am reversing my previous stance on the off-side call against Haden in the final seconds. I saw a better angle and those claiming he wasn't off-side are correct. If anything, one of the Steelers closer to the snapper might have jumped, but Haden didn't. At the very least, the officials called it on the wrong player, but now I think the blew the call entirely and the missed field goal should have stood.

    More than ever, I believe the officiating cost the Steelers that game and that may have sunk their season. The conspiracy theory stuff is ridiculous, but that officiating crew's ineptitude may end up costing the Steelers a playoff berth.

    Was at the game from a funky angle and saw that! Clear as day terrible call! The whole damn stadium saw it and the charger folks next to us said the same damn thing!

    I think the silence from the league so far this week about the debacle is interesting, at the very least.

    That's because all is going according to their plan and the Cheatriots are on course to get home filed throughout the playoffs.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    In a game that was flexed to Primetime with major playoff implications, you have major gaffs and all you get are chirps from the birds...

    This from the guy who keeps making up information about injuries. That is a real issue around here. One reason to come to this board is to find news about injuries and you keep posting misinformation.

    He's talking about me. He's angry that I keep pointing it out when he posts misinformation regarding injuries.

    Well like I said week after week I can come back on here and say you see he’s still out with his high ankle sprain. You act like I’m happy about it. Hardly this injury is devastating to our playoff chances.

    You don't even know if it is a high ankle sprain. My issue is with you making things up.

    Don't you think the league is WAY more interested in saving their experiment in the 2nd largest city? All LA superbowl?? a ratings bonanza!

    Good point. Very possible. It certainly keeps the Chargers in contention.
