Refs for Minnesota Game
You will not get me to start another thread about how I hate people who bitch about bad reffing.

You do realize that nobody claims that Michigan is being reffed by biased refs, right? Just that the overall quality of Big 10 refs are poor, and that poor refs generally call things for the home team (see: Chris Kramer getting raped by LLP without a whistle)?
Everyone knows that the refs hate Michigan. In every sport. And so does the media. And Tressel is a cheater. And Little Brother is a whiny bitch we don't have a rivalry with because they never beat us. And there need to be night games at the Big House. And Tate can throw the ball 120 yards... from his knees. And Marvin Robinson is silently committed. And Ricardo Miller will win at least 3 Heismans because he is a true Michigan Man.
Didn't you know that already?
That was my point. Refs are not coming in to hurt Michigan, they are just retarted. I just want a game where the refs don't decide the outcome.
Then why would it matter who the refs are if they're not "biased" - a shitty ref has the potential to throw it either way.
He didn't use the word "biased" in his post. And I can understand still being fearful that a ref would affect the game too much. You don't want it to be a crapshoot for who wins, based on the refs.
The irony of someone using the word "retarded" and not being able to spell it is outstanding.
Right up there with "your an idiot" and "what a moran"
The Big Ten tries to keep this a guarded secret, to prevent gamblers from having an unfair edge with regards to the Over/Under especially.
Obviously less of a problem in the NCAA rather the NBA. But referees have a tendency to call a higher scoring or lower scoring game. Gamblers pay big money for this information.
This is part of what got Tim Donaghy in trouble. That and the fixing of games. He was letting certain people know which games he was doing along with assignments of other refs. So the gambling public could take advantage.
Get good sleep tonight,rest assured the refs on Saturday will be very inconsistent not only from half to half, but possession to possession. They will favor the home team.
I was watching a game, and the color guy made a good observation.( Shocking!) If you are going to win on the road, you have to play 10 points better than the home team. Translation, the refs will hose you for about 10 points or more. Get used to it and prepare for it. That's the rule..Only complain if they start changing the standards in the middle of the game to make it 15 or more.
