It's getting harder and harder not to think the officials have a bias against NYG and a bias for Dallas

Apparently all the refs didn't get the crackdown memo.

I thought the penalty was the front arm moving upward simulating the recoil from a rifle.

I laughed last night watching the Dallas-Pitts game where the Ref did it.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

He moved his arm upward so he didn't whack the bald guy in the back of the head

Call me an old curmudgeon if you want, but I don't see any reason to celebrate getting a first down, making a tackle, making a catch or any of the too many other things players today celebrate. And they seem to have to celebrate each and every time they do it. It's your job and your expected to do all those things so Jeez, act like you've done it before.
Is there really a need to run to the other end of the stadium and mug for the camera just because you made a play.
I just don't get it...
But whether they celebrate or not, yes, the officials need to be consistent with the calls.

From one curmudgeon to another, all I know is Slayton has been doing that for years and did it numerous times in the Seattle game before it was called as a penalty. He hasn't changed.

I guess the NFL feels there needs to be a substitute "sin" instituted since it's no longer possible to "sin" by gambling. One can gamble on just about everything football related including what are Goodell's favorite pom poms if one chooses. Total BS.

The NFL is messed up . Calling that penalty on Slayton not Lamb. Stupid rule anyway.
A team can't be called Redskins even though some of group they are offending want the name.

Tonight we have the Kansas City Chiefs ......and a stadium full of people doing the tomahawk chop ...while chanting an Indian chant.    No problem

What a joke.

Oh I consider it a big problem along with the Atlanta Braves fans. They don't realize how racist they look.

It was a 41 yard catch and a huge momentum shift after a big turnover. If fans can go wild why can't the players make a first down signal. This isn't the leather helmet days anymore. You prefer the NFL stand for No Fun aLowd.
