my apologies for the 'darlin'.........it was certainly not meant in a negative or aggressive manner....

You are from the Bay Area......apparently I have mistaken you for someone I know............I would never presume that familiar expression with someone I did not know...........

this is your comment after my comment about the ref strike.......



I simply meant you should do your own research about the details of the NFL referee strike before you say 'wtf?'.............

no need to read more into what I said.....

no offensive was intended and I am really puzzled at why anyone would take it personally..............




dang Mike.........was I that unclear..........crap I am so not getting the upset part.............

Thanks for the clarification. My comment was in no way or form about the current strike(where did I even reference that) it was simply because of the continual bs calls during the game...simple as that.

I took it personally because it was personally addressed to me...really how else was that suppose to have been taken.

Regardless thanks for the apologies on the "darlin"

actually your comment came within the general conversation about the poor quality of the refs.......

the 'continual bs calls during the game' are a DIRECT result of strike.....so everything I said except for the 'darlin' comment is appropriate...........do your research before you bitch about the NFL strike breaking college only qualified refs who know jack shit about pro ball and it shows every week the strike continues.......I think it was 3, yes three, coaches who laid a hand on a ref during or in the immediate aftermath of the games played this week.....

put the Union refs back to work........

Toughy - enough! Your initial response was uncalled for. We did not moderate the post because you and MissItalianDiva seemed to be working things out. So to come back with this was out of line. And I don't want to see multiple posts based on this post. Please drop the matter and move on. You both are in agreement that calls by these substitute refs are pathetic.

Now let's get back to talking about football in fun, lighted way as football fans.

Thank you,
