Interesting that the NFL came out and said they reviewed Higgins td and said they agreed with the no call but didn't say anything about Logan Wilson penalty on 3rd down. Would have been 4th sigh.. I'm not sure the mental gymnastics needed to explain how that didn't change the outcome of the game which should never happen. NFL referees are some of the worst in professional sports.
Ever watch umpires call balls strikes and strikes balls? Ever see them call someone safe when they're tagged out 3 feet ahead of the call or out when the ball is nowhere near the runner? Happens all season long.. That said, I'll always believe that all pro sports have some element of dirty calls by officials to tip the balance of games and always have.. I guess I'm just naturally suspicious of greedy people.... Sports leagues rely on the element of plausible deniability.. So do governments in matters of life and death ..
