Re: "My favorite team won. The K.C. Chiefs."
Did you see the game? The Chiefs shouldn't have won. It was the worst officiating I've ever seen. The Pats were cheated out of THREE touchdowns. The worst was the Chiefs fumble in mid-air that the Pats ran back for a TD only to learn that the refs had whistled the ball dead as a supposedly ground-caused fumble. Nooo. The refs realized their egregious mistake upon seeing the replay and DID give the ball to the Pats, but they couldn't give them back the TD and the Pats failed to score another one. Another mistake involved an extremely blatant defensive pass interference at the 5 yeard line that wasn't called. ANOTHER involved a Patriots TD that the refs changed their mind about - while keeping the clock ticking. The Pats offense left the field and, by the time they got back on the field, they had to waste a timeout to avoid a penalty. That timeout kept them from being able to use one later that they needed in order to get a TD.

Horrible officiating, all against the Patriots. Nothing against the Chiefs. They're my 3rd favorite team. Mahomes is going to be a Hall of Famer one day.

Here's how the Washington Post describes the game:

In New England, the missed calls were more egregious. As the Chiefs marched at the end of the third quarter, tight end Travis Kelce caught a pass that gave them a first down in field goal range. Then the ball squirted loose and Stephon Gilmore scooped it up with open turf ahead, but officials ruled Kelce down. Gilmore would have almost certainly scored a touchdown had officials ruled it a fumble on the field — and after Belichick challenged, it was ruled a fumble. Officials are instructed to let those plays go and have replay sort it out, but by ruling Kelce down, they cost the Patriots a potential touchdown.

On the Patriots’ ensuing drive, wideout N’Keal Harry appeared to score after diving for the pylon, but officials ruled he had stepped out of bounds. Replays showed he stayed in, but Belichick couldn’t challenge because he had already used two — including after the Kelce fumble — and lost one. Alex Okafor sacked Brady on third down, and New England settled for a field goal.

“It was taken away from us,” safety Duron Harmon said.

You should be a Cincinnatian. Your head would be draging the concrete pavement every week and have no skin left on yer face.

My favorite team won. The K.C. Chiefs. I have always liked Andy Reid as a coach and kudos to him since Philly was so stupid to let him go.

The Chiefs are fun to watch, as is Lamar Jackson of the Ravens. I think the Ravens may well be the team to beat for the next super bowl.... Keep yer head up. Your team isn't bad and at least is on the top third tier.
