Freepers throwing tantrum over the 'Skins game
Gawd, I am laughing so hard...

Just another example of how Kerry and the Democrats will do anything to win. Remember the Refree's name. If Kerry wins the guy will be his first appointment to a Federal Court.

I know. I know. It's just a game. I'm a Redskins fan as well as a Bush/Cheney fan and I hate to see games THROWN because of bad officiating. This is the third game this year for the Skins that has been lost because of bad calls.

I'm still going to vote for the President though.

11. NFL.com has the answer
http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/gamebook/NFL_20041031_GB@WAS

Referee: Tom White

He's a very experienced ref.

18. Tom White's a seasoned veteran.
Stand-up ref, too. Never saw any problems with him calling the games he's been in. Same thing with Johnny Grier.

12. The only people that truly give a damn are people like us at DU
And you can bet that if we have not voted already, we will be the first ones in line on Tuesday! There is no group of individuals other than the inner core of the Kerry camp that is more dedicated to defeating Bush*!!

7. That thread is perhaps the dumbest thing I've ever seen over there.
And that's saying something.

8. Yep the ref is Supreme Court bound
The fact that he may not be an attorney, or never attended law school probably has nothing to do with it. He has to be a Kerry supporter because he made a correct call. Its called playing by the rules. Its hard to believe that freep actually said that. But on the other hand, I guess it may not be all that surprising. The line about not fearing Bin Laden was "pretty good" too.

10. Our Supreme Diabolical plan has failed
"I'm still going to vote for the President though."
And to think we almost had him.

17. Time to start telling them to "Get Over It"
Ya know, we may as well start early. They're going to have to adjust to the fact that their fabulous "war president" can't make it past the 50-yard line.
