Just wait until it happens to you, Jerry.

I’m sorry, I forgot where your dog in this fight was? Oh that’s right…..

Jason, I can’t tell, but are you really supporting the refs wanting a pension for a part time job? Seems like this is all just a giant cash grab on their part.

are you really operating under the thought process that part time employees don’t earn pensions all over this country?

No. But it ended with a long shot of a woman standing in the vicinity of Ted holding a yellow umbrella. Obviously Teds future wife is always prepared for sudden rain storms.

I Have it DVR’d but I dunno if I’m gonna go through with watching this season. I don’t give a fuck about Bob Saget’s wife, but I would like them to finally adress it so they can stop devoting entire episodes to near-misses no one cares about. There’s coy and there’s annoying.

He’s an owner. He’s who Roger Goodell has to answer to. The commish works for the owners. You think Jones wants to dip into his deep oil pockets to pay refs a couple more bucks and their pension? Nope.

The “he can afford it” logic is so tired. In the NFL and in politics.

At this point, the league is being penny wise and pound foolish. It’s adversely affecting their product and it’s overshadowing everything else right now.

What’s worse is, I don’t think the Owners care about it at this point. They are committed to these replacement refs and only a colossal act of leadership by the Commissioner will get the “real” refs back again.

anyone who watches that show deserves to be fucked over

The wannebe hipsters who watch HIMYM are the ones screaming the loudest about Jon Cryer’s Emmy win.

dental plan

lisa needs braces!

Lions will get screwed this weekend. No one will care.

Merely a communication problem, I’ll leave it at that

from a fun standpoint (fantasy, recreational plays) and work (NFL by far biggest for clicks), i love the league.

I don’t see how the replacement refs hurt any of that. If anything, you would think controversy would be better for you in terms of driving traffic, right? I doubt fewer people are logging on to read about a massive fuckup than a normal game involving Seattle.

ehh. there is so much crappy TV on that it is hardly the worst. If Segel and Hannigan and to a lesser extent NPH can continue to show up for work I can continue to waste 20 minutes being pissed off on a Monday.

Did Ted and Robin finally go through with that Murder-Suicide pact?

No. But it ended with a long shot of a woman standing in the vicinity of Ted holding a yellow umbrella. Obviously Teds future wife is always prepared for sudden rain storms.

He just wanted to see the real bullshit happening on CBS last night as HIMYM continued to drag its viewers through burning hoops

but are you really supporting the refs wanting to maintain a pension for current refs for a part time job, while allowing new refs to go into a 401k?

This sounds completely.. reasonable. Jeesh.

I can’t believe 32 of the richest men in the USA are sacrificing their product over this pittance. Unbelievable. No idea it was that simple a request.

What happens if they do? Curious

Dear Curious,

It’s reasonable to ask this question. Perhaps if the owners really cared about the fan experience and players, they would have a settlement. As such, a player slowdown (wow, the training room sure is full…do we have 11 who can practice? Nope? Ok) then the owners might get a hint.

Best luck,
Abby

I want the old refs back. NFL needs to get the damn deal done. What’s a few million ($50?) to protect the best sport in the country? from a fun standpoint (fantasy, recreational plays) and work (NFL by far biggest for clicks), i love the league.

They lose their dental plan

The players from Appalachia no longer give a fuck about that.
