Seahawks defeated by referees

Anybody else out there watch the game today and think the refs were on crack in the Super Bowl? I'm a referee myself (soccer) and I think that has to be the worst referee football game I have ever seen.

no joke. on ESPN.com, there's a poll asking what people will remember most about Super Bowl XL (Xtra Lame): Bettis Winning then Retiring, Bill Cowher winning a superbowl, Willie Parker's 75 yard TD run, Randle El's TD pass, or bad officiating. Bad refereeing is winning at 39% of the votes over Bettis winning and retiring (32%). Not only Seattle is mad about the craptasic screw-job the referees pulled over the Seahawks.

all the announcers were up in their booth saying things like "hm... that's an...interesting call" and "wtf!"

even at half-time they were like "hawks are out playing steelers, hands down"

everyone knows something weird was going on w/ those refs

yeah and those announcers were John Madden, Steve Young, and Michael Irvin (and Irvin should know about the "pushoff" he got away with alot more when he played for the Cowboys). If anybody would know about that kind of stuff, it would be those guys who have spent their entire life in football.

yeah what they called was that Hasselbeck "blocked" one of the other players in his attempt to tackle the player with the ball. If you watch, he didn't even touch the guy. And I thought the same thing when Roethlisberger blocked one of the Seahawk linebackers on the trick play when Randle El threw the touchdown pass on the wide reciever reverse.
