I'll call a spade a spade on the "on both sides" crowd from Bama, but I'll do the same to UGA posters who make dumb comments.


You don't think the officials sucked and there were multiple missed calls on both sides? Obviously the punt block thing was the biggest in terms of its result on the game - but these officials were very bad on both sides.

Not that it matters to me due to the result and not an attack on you, i'm just curious because i felt that these officials were very bad.

It's not that the comment is inaccurate, it's that it's used to excuse it as some how *balanced*. Officials are going to miss calls... period. That's not even debatable. The party line here on the rant right now if anyone makes any remark that remotely insinuates that Alabama benefited from the poor officiating is to go to the "on both sides" argument.

If a guy steals 10 bucks from you and 100 bucks from me... did we both lose something? Sure... but one of us was impacted more, no?

As I said multiple times in this thread, and in others... we had our chances and made mistakes along the way that ended up costing the game - that's on the players and coaches... but it's not inaccurate to say that Alabama's not even in the position to take advantage of them without some pretty beneficial officiating.
