I'm more angry that Cobb's gotten drilled for the third time this year after calling for a fair catch, and no flags have been thrown to date. Player safety player schmafety.

For the record, Jeff Triplett is not a lawyer; at least, he's not a practicing lawyer. He is, however, a retired Army colonel, which could go a long way toward explaining his fuckwitedness. [duh]

He was awarded a Bronze Star for his service in the first Gulf War, which basically means he showed up for work and didn't fuck up too egregiously.

He is currently the President and Chief Operating Officer of FNC, Inc., the provider of collateral management technology to the nation's largest mortgage lenders. Whatever the fuck that means.

If we sucked at our jobs half as bad as Jeff Triplett does, we would all be unemployed.

What disturbed me most about the call is that Jeff Triplette seemed to momentarily lose his cool, particularly as he said, "on the Packers!" No matter what happens in a game, the officiating crew should remain glacially calm, if only to maintain the appearance of propriety and impartiality. I never like watching Triplette's crew in any game, but his behavior last night damaged my perception of his professionalism.

And, yes, I know they probably have a website somewhere that tells more. But I'm too lazy to look.

He said "Green Bay."

I was listening to Wayne Larivee on WTMJ this morning. GB was coming out on to the field before the ref blew the whistle to signify the end of the play. they had been warned 2 other times. Rules say the 3rd time is a penalty.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
