He does look happy as **** bounding off that bus don't he?
 
**** a duck

the fix was in, NFL made sure Jerruh plays again

Detroit did everything they could to blow a 2 TD lead too
Exactly. Detroit didn't do themselves any favors in the second half but any doubts that the fix is in much of the time should be erased now.
 
How many times in a row did 93 line up,in the neutral zone on that final drive?

No doubt. It's one thing to get beat on the field straight up. It's another to get beat with blatant officiating miscues or even flat out cheating. I feel bad for all the Lions fans here where I live. I won't watch another snap this season after that ****.
 
Yes it's bullshit that they picked up the flag. It's also bullshit that the fix was in. Mind you:
A fix that would have been so well orchestrated that Dallas would not have the lead until very late in a game in which they were penalized 6 times and then so egregiously blundered that they would call another penalty against Dallas only to remember the fix and pick it up the flag.
 
Romo has been supposed to win a lʍoq ɹǝdnS every year for the last 5 years. Since he hasn't been able to accomplish this on his own, this year it appears they're just going to give him one. The media Romo nut-hugging has been even worse than usual this year.

I'm usually the first to deny these conspiracy theories. If the Cowchips win the lʍoq ɹǝdnS this year it's going to be hard to deny.

I have asked this of one Cowboy fan friend repeatedly and she hasn't answered me:

Next week, when you guys are at Green Bay, and a call that SHOULD have gone your way all of a sudden doesn't, will you still feel that it's fair?

Crickets. Amazing how the homerism is so blinding.
 
I don't know about a fix, but I can only say this. Never, in my 30+ years of watching football, have I seen a PI flag picked up after it's been announced to the stadium and the TV audience. WTF. I'll never understand why this billion dollar league can't solve how stupidly ****** their officiating is. It's pathetic.
 
Can't say that game was fixed but that one call that gave Dallas the ball was absolutely fixed. There is no way the ref makes the call on the field through his mic for all to hear and then, when no one was paying attention, changes the call with no announcement as to what or why. The players on the field didn't even know what happened. The Detroit O was still on the field because they thought it was first down. That was pure and utter BS and a total fix. Detroit probably would have won the game if that call was made correctly as it was when they originally made it. It was obvious PI and an obvious change due to circumstances no one can explain other than the head of officiating partying on the Dallas team bus.
 
Well, the "fix" might not be in full scripted WWE mode, but there sure is a helping hand given to certain teams at certain times.
 
Deadspin is a satirical site like The Onion. Please don't take the article seriuosly.

Umm no.

The Onion is a satirical site, while Deadspin is a sports related version of Gawker, based a lot on anonymous info.

The Deadspin article links to a TMZ video and a CBS sports both which appear to be legitimate.

Don't know what happened on the bus, but to have the head of officiating hanging out with a Cowboy exec on your team party bus doesn't look too good.
 
I love all The Cowboy fans are all saying Pettigrew grabbed the LB's facemask...thats why he couldn't turn his head..I really don't care anymore its over now they changed the call so last minute..its just very shady..also the one thing you cannot debate..Dez Bryant came on the field to confront the offical about the call with no helmet..that is a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty...no question no debate.
