Not Hating the Officiating

I was amused during the Dallas Cowboys game today when the official had to stop part way into the penalty call because it was so complicated but at least he was having a little fun with it. Good for you buddy, keep it light. I'm not sure what the rules are for the officiating team, but I would have loved it if he turned on his mic for take 2 and said, "ok, let's try this again...". To push it even more, I'm sure they'll joke about, "ok, let's just say some guy on the offense got a holding call, some guy on the defense got unneccessary roughness, those offset, there was some other call, suffice it to say the ball will be on the X yard line, 1st down Dallas."

Oh, and boy do I love it when the offense gets into rhythm with the skip button on my pvr. Makes it seem like they're moving up the field SO efficiently! Of course sometimes QB's like Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are just too quick for me to use the skip, that's cool too.

On a related note, holy *&^#, it's been nearly A YEAR since I posted?! And the last post was about football too. Huh.

P.S. Speaking of sports, a VERY late congrats to the Chicago Blackhawks for winning the Stanley Cup.

Just please be more timely when you congratulate Green Bay on winning the Super Bowl.

Thank you.

Okay, Aaron. I think you're a very good QB and Green Bay is a good team. Have a great season. I'll try to get my congrats in in a more timely fashion should you win the Super Bowl.

I think you have me confused with Aaron Rodgers. Yes, the names sound the same, but I'm just a very good waiter at a nice steakhouse. We have a good softball team, but not much of a chance of winning the Super Bowl.

Well I didn't think I was really typing to the QB of Green Bay but I also didn't notice the difference in last name spelling.
