    Jags fans still say Myles Jack was not down last year in AFC Championship against The Most Hated Team in America!!

    Its too bad they blew that call. Would have loved to see Brady and Brees square off.
    Its too bad knee jerk reaction is to sue. But, it is the American way…

      More fun if the kid and Brees squared off. Both games fixed.

      FFA, did you know that 4 of the refs in the Saints/Rams game were from sunny Southern California? Pretty easy for them to turn a blind eye to the worst non call in NFL history.

    So the only way to end this season is with a New England blowout victory!

    It’s Pat’s all the way here is St. Louis. We love the Rams, but we can’t stand their owner. Kroenke stinks and we will never forgive him.

    How are you unaware that these sorts of lawsuits have been filed before?
    Carl Mayer, a New Jersey lawyer and Jet season ticket holder, filed a $185 million lawsuit against the Patriots for racketeering after the Spygate scandal. He claimed the games were rigged. The NFL didn’t deny this, but only that it has no obligation to offer non-rigged games. The NFL is legally “sports entertainment” and not a competitive sport at all. Only roller derby and the WWE are so designated. The judge accepted that argument because fixing outcomes are OK for entertainment, but not for competition. It would be no different than a football game depicted in a movie.
    It wouldn’t have killed you to do five minutes of research before writing this.
