Some good news here looks like.

I expect the NFL (read Ownership) to start feeling pressure from ALL sides to get a deal done, even if it means they have to capitulate on somethings they view as nonstarters.
What truly amazes me is that they view this "shoddy product" as something worthy of the NFL brand. They actually expect these replacement refs to pick up the speed and complexity of the NFL game ON THE FIELD. It's like saying "We'll train you to be a Ranger, gonna paradrop you behind enemy lines with an M4 and see what you do, welcome to boot rookie. Make it back alive, m'kay? Orientation starts at 0930 two days after your drop."

This situation has become THE story of this NFL season, not the games or players - but the folks that are basically supposed to be invisible during a game, the officials. The fans, players shouldn't have to hear about 10+ bad calls during one game, it should be maybe 10 in a week (usually not even that many more like 4 or 5). The longer it stays in the headlines, the worse it's going to get. Finalize that deal and let's all get back to NFL quality football.

That pretty much sums it up there rsg. I'm glad my Colts have a bye this weekend, time to heal up and more time to prepare for the Packers game.

Meanwhile the Phins face Arizona, who I believe is still undefeated. From my POV, a loss to ANY undefeated team is unacceptable, the Dolphins have a legacy to protect and it should be a point of pride when putting on that uniform - They should revel in being a ruiner.

Good luck to your Dolphins Sunday. Arizona is playing really good with Kolb at quarterback.

We shall see what happens, should've won the damn Jets game. The whole "Icing the kicker" thing needs to go the way of the dodo.

Is that when the opposing team calls a time out right before the kick?
