Just sayin'....Super Bowl is illegit this year any way, might as well cancel it and call it a border wall casualty too, makes about as much sense as what is going on in the first place.

Fuck the NFL and Fuck Trump. Equally hard for both.

I'm still pretty upset about the bounties in the 2009 NFC Championship game that put the Saints in the Super Bowl. But I didn't call the Super Bowl illegitimate.

And I assume you are complaining about the pass interference call and completely ignoring the missed blatant face mask on Goff that would have put the Rams 1st and goal on the 1 which would have made that PI call much less meaningful. And the other penalties that would have helped the Rams they missed.

I can just see the heads exploding with that! I'm sure that there would be tons of "trumpsters" conflicted with that.

Nah, it will never happen - not enough courage for too many money interests............

But the NFL...I doubt it. Nor all those advertisers.

Anna Navarro had a great idea...
Fed workers should go to all trump eateries, have a huge dinner and when the bill arrives, tell them Trump said businesses would work with with Federal employees.

paid big bucks for a 30 sec or 1 min ad - when the viewership for this game will be way down. A lot of people are just not interested in a game that appears to be fixed because of bad officiating.
