A person's manhood is directly correlated to his unwillingness to blame officiating when his team loses. In the most extreme circumstances it's probably okay...but, for instance, in 24 years of being a Seahawks fan and seeing a ton of losses in that period of time, I would call officiating the clear #1 primary factor in three losses ever (1998 at NY Jets, 2003 at Baltimore, Super Bowl XL). Obviously it's a secondary factor a fair bit more commonly, and obviously it's fine to gripe in the immediate aftermath of any bad call, but if the team goes on to lose and the officiating wasn't truly the #1 reason for the loss, STFU.
(This rant directed at the world at large and not at anyone ITT.)
The reffing pissed me off on Sunday (Eagles vs Seahawks). Not saying it's the reason why we lost, Seattle was clearly the better team, but it didn't help matters. I'm not sold on any of the Eagles QB's, they're serviceable in this offense, but I still think we need someone better. If we add that and a few more pieces to the D, we're championship contenders, imo.
Yes, I refer to my teams as "we" get over it.
