aec4 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 How the HELL did Hoculi get a playoff game? They rate official teams and pick the best ones. There are 11 games, so maybe that's why but after the regular season he had?! come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aec4 Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 Its just as perplexing as NBC having Matt Millen on their pregame show last night. WTF? Matt Millen is actually a good analyst. Always has been. Official grading is supposed to be this season only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 He's not a horrible official, he's just had some horrible moments this year. LOL He has actually been one of the best through the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aec4 Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 Hoculi's crew rated out as #1 according to Simms.. Interesting. Definitely possible, as I can't say I keep my eyes on the refs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Because one bad call / game doesn't make up for an entire career of him and his crew being one of the best in the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 Because one bad call / game doesn't make up for an entire career of him and his crew being one of the best in the game? His crew has had more than 1 f up this year, but they say they graded out #1 so there ya go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Hoculi's crew rated out as #1 according to Simms.. Interesting. Definitely possible, as I can't say I keep my eyes on the refs. It is hard to believe. I am sure they are a good crew. But anytime you make a call that incorrectly determines the outcome of a game, I would think you wouldn't grade out to # 1.

aec4 Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 So is the Pro Bowl. Yep, Favre had a Pro Bowl season yeah but it's been well known for years pro bowl voting is based on rep.. Wrong, but that's the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gainzo Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 yeah but it's been well known for years pro bowl voting is based on rep.. Wrong, but that's the truth. Not as bad as the NHL All-Star voting. Two Penguins and 4 Canadiens fill out the starting lineup for the East. Guess where the game is being played?

NHL All-Star starters are all fan based as far as the voting. You probably would have seen Ovechkin, Chara, Thomas instead of the Canadiens. And Ed Hochuli got a playoff game because nobody in the NFL wanted to tell him no. You want to mess with those guns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
