People are painting with way too broad of a brush coupled with the concern of "making excuses" has them reeling off "man up principles" (e.g., ugh, no excuses lol). But if you put the buzz cut culture bs down for a second, you'll recognize that in a close game --which it clearly was-- every play and point counts; and the booth not overturning the ref calling targeting was excessively miscalled (and it took off how much clock, field position, etc. things were close ). And finding out now that the thumbs down guy at the booth has kids attended Free Shoes --you're great grandmother * right I wouldn't ignore that.
For all the obnoxious policing that goes into the "integrity of the game," you'd think there would be a better job of screening even this/some hint of a conflict of interest.
As a parting point: and I don't typically point to the gallery, but it seems our beer throwing brethren likewise disapprove (though that may make a stronger case against it lol). But how can so much disapproval of a call (including by people here) prompt a numb response to exposing a relationship between the booth making that call, and having its member(s)'s kids attend and have a relationship with the school in favor of whom the call was made...
