More on the poor officiating yesterday…
Here’s a few quotes after the Skins/Rams game, from The Washington Post’s DC Sports Bog
“Never have I been involved in a game like this.” — Mike Shanahan.
“You wait for the second [punch] to be thrown before you throw a flag? They were doing a lot of dirty stuff after every play.” — Santana Moss, after the game.
“This is the dirtiest game I’ve ever played in. Hitting after the play. A guy ripped my helmet off one time. I didn’t know that was legal.” — Darrel Young, For the record, not legal.
“They were doing a lot of dirty stuff after the play. In those situations, sometimes your emotions get the best of you.” — Fred Davis
“I think the game was out of hand from early on. It was tough to try to keep your composure. It was real chippy.” — DeAngelo Hall
“Obviously everybody wants the officials back. Hopefully it can happen in the near future.” — Shanahan
“The Rams/Redskins officiating crew is 50 shades of lame.” — Colin Cowherd. At least he didn’t use “chippy.”
“I’m officially over it. The regular refs need to get back on the field. Enough is enough.” — Mike Pereira FOX Sports rules analyst.
Now the real question is…who will budge first?
