re: So Bret flat out lied about blackballing a ref

nope nope nope, the message is that if you call a bad game on us you're about to get blasted on "social media". All anyone wants is an honest game. Unless ref's want to lose their job's or become a pariah they'll be on their "best behavior" when calling a hog game.
