BRING THE REGULAR REFS BACK NOW!!!

The worst case scenario when the NFL decided to lockout the referees (because their dicks) was that an error made by the replacement refs would ultimately decide the fate of a game. That scenario came to life earlier tonight.

The Packers and the Seahawks played in CenturyLink Field in Seattle for some Monday Night Football action and there wa... FINE!!! Let's cut to the chase and just say that the game came down to a 4th and basically-have-to-win-it for the Seahawks at the GB 24 with 8 seconds left and the Packers leading by 5. After scrambling for a few seconds, Seahawks Rookie QB Russell Wilson throws a pass in the endzone with a bunch of players from both teams awaiting the ball to arrive. M.D. Jennings of the Packers appeared to come down with the ball with Seahawk Receiver Golden Tate's hands on it as well trying to wrestle it away. Anybody who has seen the instant replay of the throw can tell that Jennings had possession of the ball first with it against his chest with Tate still trying to wrestle it away.

Then the mistakes come. The refs don't know what to call and initially stand there paralyzed as to what just happened. Then one of them rules TD a split second before another makes a motion indicating that the ball has changed hands on an interception. The official call is a TD and the Seattle crowd goes nuts. The refs are asked to go to instant replay and they look at it and confirm the call afterwards. The Seahawks then eventually make the extra point with some of the disgusted Packers coming back onto the field from the dressing room. The Seahawks wi... NO... the refs GIVE the game to the Seahawks 14-12.

Right now the league is in trouble. Everyone in the league and the media was afraid that this kind of scenario would happen and it has. It was a gamble by the league in the first place to lockout the refs and bring in these replacements. The league apparently doesn't know what happens when you gamble and they now lost.

The league will now hear from everyone who has a voice (even priests who have taken a vow of silence) yell at the top of their lungs that the regular refs have to come back and that the league has to budge considerably on their demands. As for me, the league has to bring the regular officials back ASAP. The integrity of any sport cannot be in jeopardy at any time. This incident automatically calls the league's integrity into question rather than simple speculation when the lockout began. The league's image is now being affected negatively.

The lockout of the officials is now in the forefront of every fan's mind thinking what will the officials screw up in their games this week. Surely the regular officials do make mistakes but not like this one.

P.S. Also, Golden Tate should've been called for Offensive Pass Interference on the play. Two reasons the Packers should've won.
