The replacement refs do suck but has anyone noticed a bias toward the home teams on blown calls? It's seems the visiting teams get the sh**t calls.
Well certainly, and it makes sense. If the replacement officials are feeling insecure and confused enough, 75,000 screaming fans and a long ride home can convince you of the "right" decision rather quickly. Even if not for fear, who doesn't want to get cheered instead of booed? I'm not saying it makes it right by any means, but it isn't really surprising.
