I don't know, but I am glad the refs screwed the Jets because I had money on the Browns by 3.

BTW, that roughing call on Clay Matthews was BS. You can clearly see Matthews put his hand down to keep his weight off Cousins. Cousins left his feet and there was no way for Matthews to avoid hitting him.

I guess the message is, "You are going to get called anyway. So, you might as well fuck the QB up."

It will happen every week.

QB's will soon be like goalkeepers the slightest touch and that will be it.

How sad!

Could be worse. Imagine you're a Lions fan. The team that stomped you 48-17, just got beat by the Browns.

Buffalo ahead of Minnesota 24-0.

Shocking!

Now 27-0 in the 4th quarter. A whole lot of bettors and participants in suicide pools are ruined. As i noted when a member wondered if the Giants would go 0-16 this year:

Its Giants 27 Houston 15 with 2 minutes to go in the 4th quarter.

I have been noticing the people on the sideline lately while watching the different NFL games each week.

For example just now during the Saints vs Falcon game.

Who are those people?

They are not part of the officiating crew or the stadium crew.

They don't look like reporters or news camera crew: I don't see any camera equipment.

Who are they?

How did they get a spot to stand in the sideline.

Earlier in the game there were 2 ladies in their 20's who were just standing there on the sideline near the end zone, and they were jumping up and down when the Falcon scored.

I know you can get tickets to the private booths upstairs and to the seats.

Do they now have tickets that you can buy that let you go stand on the sidelines?

First one is the Falcons owner other two are probably family members.

Remember Clay Mathews last week well its a repeat performance this week, must be some sort of witch hunt, then again QB's will soon be untouchable.

They don't have tickets but teams issue sideline passes to VIPs.

Well, that's just not fair, ain't it?

They are not the only ones I've noticed on the sidelines that don't look like they belong to crew or news media.
