Texans started a little rocky, but that defense never let up. Took it 30-10 against the Dolphins.

pretty much sums up the replacement refs. and it should be the play that ends the strike.

I think it's funny that now everyone acts like the old refs were so fucking great. The NFL, NBA, and MLB are all SO FUCKED UP, in SO MANY WAYS at this point that I have just stopped watching. It makes me sad to be an American. Just the complete fucking lack of sportsmanship by anyone involved. Players, owners, coaches, officials, EVERYONE. I realize it's about money and careers but everyone needs to remember that it's also just a game. A game that used to be mostly about 2 things, Respect and Sportsmanship. That's been completely lost by everyone involved at this point, especially the fans. It's really sad that something like a football game can piss everyone off this bad. I love sports too but I was watching ESPN yesterday watching a bunch of my fellow Americans bitch like teenagers about the NFL, and I feel like I had an epiphany. It's a fucking game, and if we're unhappy with the outcome, we don't have to watch it. Sports are great, but we all have way more important shit to worry about in this country right now. I just think it's dumb to let a football game ruin your life lol

[bright lights, big city]

You're absolutely right. Mistakes always happen with umps and refs. But this is just atrocious with the quality of the game being blown away and the owners and players basically not giving a damn. It's all bullshit. The safety issue, the fact that the players care. To settle this strike, each team owner needs to pony up $100,000. They each make more than that in one quarter of one game.

This needs to get settled ASAP for at least the league to show any sort of notion to its fans that they give a damn. If not, the players should boycott out of solidarity. But we all know that won't happen. I'm very close to joining you in completely giving it up. I'm close too, because the main reason I have been watching is just to make fun of the entire Bears organization.

[There Will Be Blood]

these refs suck, totally ruining the game ... btw jets suck too

[lithium]

The ref lockout is over!

[bright lights, big city]

Fuhrer Goodell came on here and saw my rant. And apparently now the whole country's forgiven the league.

[There Will Be Blood]

Someone traded me Ryan Matthews and Doug Martin for Get this KEVIN OGLETREE LOLOLOLOL

[DEFTONES x]

CHICAGO BEARS. THAT IS ALL.

[bright lights, big city]

Can't wait for tomorrow night's game. Finally get to see what the real Bears are like, now that they start playing real teams.

[lithium]

[bright lights, big city]

crazy shit.

[lithium]

crazy shit indeed

I feel bad for the kid

[bright lights, big city]

Anyone notice that FOX and CBS kind of ignored this situation. I heard a passing mention of it in the highlights on FOX, but that's it. I don't even get why they played only 24 hours after this happened.

[lithium]

especially since it happened in front of the coach and other personnel
