BillsWatch Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/stor...&id=3462384 Larry Nemmers and the Buffalo Bills, 2002 to 2006 Circumstantial evidence: On Dec. 23, 2001, Nemmers worked the Falcons' 33-30 victory over the Bills in the Georgia Dome. His crew assessed 12 penalties for 95 yards against the Bills, compared to five penalties for 43 yards against the Falcons. Bills tight end Jay Riemersma disputed a critical pass-interference penalty called against him. "The guy I was blocking actually told me, 'You didn't hold me, I tripped,'" Riemersma told the Buffalo News. Four referees have a longer game drought than this.

Beerball Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks Fez, I missed reading that. Very interesting...and surprising that we haven't heard that stuff before.
Beerball Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted already. Even on same page. must be pretty well hidden, else I'm going blind. I still can't find the post you're referring to.
Just Jack Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 must be pretty well hidden, else I'm going blind. I still can't find the post you're referring to. He's refering to this one he posted... http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=68189 titled League cautious when addressing grievances Not very descriptive that it's about refs.
BillsWatch Posted July 14, 2008 Author Posted July 14, 2008 It is the original title (League cautious when addressing grievances) and it is about grievances teams are having about certain referees. I guess I could have adding my own subtitle.
Fan in San Diego Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 I've often wondered if mobsters had secretly threatened to kill refs and or their families if the ref. didn't influence the outcome of a game and threaten worse stuff if they talk about it. Has anybody ever studied the accidental death rate of NFL refs and if it's higher than the national average ?
