If everyone knows Alstott was not in, but the Ref still did not over turn it, after looking at it from 2 or 3 angles for 1 minute and a half, then later the NFL officals come out and say.... "Well we looked at it for 2-3 more minutes and it looks different now" Geez! We got screwed, just face it!!

It does do some good. The referees are graded based on their performance, and showing the league that they blew calls will make it far less likely that they will be invited to ref playoff contests or the Super Bowl. I'll personally be happy that these guys wont be there to screw us when we're playing in Detroit!!!
