Just watched these scumbags pull this one out after – guess what – a near trilogy of pro-Packer calls following a good FG by the Saints.

If the Packers and specifically Rodgers, McCarthy and all their convict receivers – and we certainly can’t forget C-Bed, a scumbag pile of garbage himself – aren’t the whiniest pile of garbage in the league, I don’t know who is. As always, lucky ass Packers and their welfare ass dirtbag fans suck.

I don’t think there’s any mystery about the Packers’ offense. Rodgers has been sacked 16 times and hit 22 times in three games. It doesn’t matter how good your QB is if he’s spending most of the game on his arse.

Heck I don’t even think it was a bad call, I think possession happened at the same time. The Packers can shove it!

Spot on Roy! My father (super long time Bears fan) called me on the phone right after the Seahawks TD was confirmed, he was laughing hysterically at home it was karma for the ’89 replay.

That is one of our most painful defeats of all time, as far as I’m concerned. Back then there was no time limit on instant replay reviews, and I swear they spent 20 minutes reviewing that thing. I could not believe it when they ruled it a touchdown even though “The Magic Man” was clearly over the line of scrimmage. God I remember that like it was yesterday…hard to believe it’s been 23 damn years!

Great comments all. Yes JDM, as of this point the Packers haven’t been the Packers. Let’s hope that continues. Still infuriates me that if the offense would have played a below average game even, Bears could have won that. But on the call, agreed, it was horrible. But sh*t happens in the nfl, it isn’t as if this is the first time a team lost on a horrible call. Just because it’s everyone’s beloved Packers, the world is aghast.

Being a bears fan, I’ve had my fair share of anger towards refs who never seem to be on our side. When I saw how angry Packer fans were today on facebook/radio/news, I realizedthat it’s because they aren’t used to these bad calls; they are used to everything happening in their favor. It was a bad call- isn’t the first and won’t be the last. Maybe it’s finally karma time.

It was a bad call, and I said in the preseason this replacements were going to be really bad. But, screw them. Has anyone noticed the Packers offense have scored only three TDs in the first three games? Their two other TDs came on special teams. Hell, around the league, looks like defenses have caught up a bit. And you know what, I’m fine with that. We will see how long the NFL Corporate Greed will last with the referees. As a former soccer referee who watches lots of the NFL, why didn’t I get called up???

Roy, I made the same analogy to many Bears fans in an e-mail last night. There is NO denying that particularly since the Favre years (and that 1989 game) through the present, the Packers have gotten the advantage of calls, no calls, bad calls, and questionable calls at an ASTOUNDING rate. I’ve noticed it, my brother who lives in Madison notices this, and my best friend notices this.. So while yes, they got screwed last night, when looked at from a macro level, perhaps it was Karma FINALLY biting back..(HARD).

Yeah, I remember this one!! Ditka insisted there should be an asterisk in the media guide calling it “The Instant Replay Game”
