I enjoyed Boogers directness last night. He was calling out the refs, and Parry (former ref in booth) for costing teams games this season. Said it’s unacceptable and they need to be held accountable. Parry was doing the run around admitting mistakes but saying it’s tough to see etc. Booger was having none of it And called him out for it multiple times, and I applaud him for that. Not easy when the guy is sitting next to you and you are with him all the time.
And it's something that needs to be said loud and clear until the dipshits in charge of the league are made to realize that they're doing their damnedest to kill off fan interest with the combination of bad calls and the constant flagging of minor infractions. I don't know if its just that refs are getting worse equipped to call games with athletes that keep getting larger and more athletic OR if it's the league, on a yearly basis, deciding that some particular call NEEDS to be a focal point of what they're looking for, making it so that they're looking for specific infractions to the detriment of calling an overall game, but it seems like the overall refereeing product has been really suffering in recent times in comparison to even a few years ago. Then, it seemed there'd be a bad game here or there and blown calls weren't exactly rare, but it wasn't even near today's standard where it seems every week, there's at least one game where the refs had way too much a say in who won.
