re: So Bret flat out lied about blackballing a ref

it was unusual for that official to make the call, but the players were turned around and it happended right in front of him.

See my thread here. where I originally posted that screenshot above. As I mentioned there, you can see at the 45:30 mark that the RT and Hand had moved into the RG slot, and that's the reason why the umpire was looking right at him. The umpire was looking in the guard hole, exactly where he's supposed to look.

Smart move by Bert apologizing though. He was about to get buttfricked by every officiating crew in the SEC. And that may happen anyway.

And yeah, now it appears that Bert is a bald faced liar.

"I can be rest assured — and all Hog fans — we’ll never see that official again,” Bielema said Monday. “That’s been guaranteed to me. That makes my heart and my wife’s heart probably a little bit better."

And I'd also guarantee that Golic didn't go back and look at any video; he was just yammering because of what Blackledge said.
