American Football: Now I'm pissed. Ref abuse in Atlanta.

Well, do we need officials deciding the outcomes of games? I thought that Monday nights game between the Falcons and Eagles was trashed by the striped squad. Trotter threw a punch? Where? I watched replay after replay and didn't see it. With Trotter would the outcome have been different? Probably.

BTW, if you go to the official Eagles site, the intro on it will probably show you why the fans are so rabid, read that "whacked".

they don't need to throw blows to get ejected, I thin k the striped ones did thier job...

I watched the Replays of the confrontation, and yes... there was a punch thrown, which unded in the guy just grasping the others face mask. Ejections were necessary, and I think the better team still won. The Eagles still had McNabb and TO to get the win.

it was a good trade off for the falcons but they still lost
