First was the touchdown in the endzone that was overturned because "he used the ground to gain control" that doesnt make any sense what so ever and then Randy Moss barely touches the corner and its offensive pass interference? The refs are being paid off and its obvious and disgusting
Last yr Farve was the big story, WHAT A GUY, BLAH BLAH BLAH, NFL put him in the limelight, Vikes got a LOT of subtle calls from the refs, just when they needed it.
This yr, Farve pulled out his crank, they want him to go away. Vikes got hosed. (betting angle of the yr)

And they admitted to blowing calls now. I wonder if they'll reverse that L in the loss column for the Vikings, heh. It's unreal how many times the league blows calls against this franchise.
On Sunday night, a curious decision to overturn Visanthe Shiancoe's 17-yard touchdown from Brett Favre midway through the second half, following a Mike McCarthy challenge, cost the Vikings four points and theoretically the game.
The NFL admitted on Monday that overturning the touchdown call was the incorrect move.
Brad Childress, who called the game the "worst officiated" he's "seen in a while" afterwards, told reporters that the NFL informed him the replay call was incorrect and that Carl Johnson, the head of officiating, was "disappointed" that the replay decision was made.
It was pretty clearly a catch, too -- though the ball did make contact with the ground as Shiancoe dove into the end zone, he had possession throughout the entirety of the catch. Unfortunately, the NFL can't retroactively give the Vikings an additional four points, so they remain stuck at 2-5 with a superstar quarterback limping around in an ankle brace as they get ready for a trip to New England.

not to mention the touchdown green bay had at the back of the endzone when he didnt have control all the way down, and the offensive pass interference on randy moss at the end of 1st half that every reciever in the nfl does.....At least the nfl admitted that they f*cked up and I for one would like to see that referee fired
