Fail Marry


authors note: I hate when the packers lose because they are my favorite team.

The Packers were affected by a call a few weeks ago. The replacement referees had no idea what they were doing. They made the wrong call and completely changed the outcome of the game. The commissioner of the NFL also knew that it was wrong and publicly addressed it. Since this event, the original officials have come back to provide fair and decent ruling.


The Packer lost to the Seahawks. This was the effect of a terrible call by one of the replacement officials. The Seahawks needed a touchdown to win and there was only seconds left. On the last play Russell Wilson the quarterback for the Seahawks threw a pass deep into the end zone. The pass was then intercepted by a Packer and the officials decided that it was a touchdown.


Given the information it is very simple to understand that the Packers were affected by the replacement referees; in a negative way I might add. To make things even more irrational, one of the refs that was standing near the play signaled an interception while the other signaled a touchdown! To summarize the whole event, the Packers lost a game because of a false call made by an inexperienced  official.
