NW Holding

Condescension is unbecoming, but if it makes you feel smart, carry on. What would be the point of limiting it to accepted penalties? If you're making a comment about teams not being penalized for holding against Nebraska, limiting to ones Nebraska chose to accept is pretty damn stupid. Limiting to accepted penalties is of no value. For you to use it in support of the idea that officiating is biased is equally stupid. But again, if it makes you feel better, carry on.
To circle back... are you seriously miffed that an opposing fan’s message board is speaking condescendingly to you? For real? How thin is your skin?

No condescension here then, even though it is a message board and you’re miffed that it happens, which I think is hilarious that your miffed...

Now you are an idiot and a troll who hasn’t read this thread in its entirety. I have said REPEATEDLY that this graphic doesn’t amount to bias. All I am trying to do is make sense of the graphic. Why post it? Is it a mistake? Could be. But what if they intended to say that it had been 21 conference games since a holding penalty benefited nebraska? It’s plausible, and quite frankly, the only explanation that makes sense. How does the BTN whiff so badly if they intended it to be any other way?

FTR, again, I AM NOT CLAIMING BIAS.

Understand?

I'm miffed? Glad you told me as i was unaware. I just said it was unbecoming. If you're javing a hard time with, it means it makes you look bad.

Someone looks bad, but it’s not him. Perhaps it’s the guy/gal/whatever butthurt on another teams message board.

Where are all of these guys coming from? Someone put in the call for reinforcements? Can’t handle things on their own?

Unreal, the number of trolls in this thread. For real.

So no response to the post itself other than to divert attention away from what I posted?

It’s not every day a fan base bitches about officiating before the game... word has spread quickly through the rivals world regarding the new delusion standard set by the Nebraska fan base and we are all here to participate in this momentous occasion.

Well played.

What stupid post. The rivals community represents an extremely small fraction of the overall fan base. Plus, I doubt many posters here give a fu*k what an anonymous group of mouth breathing Iowa fans think. You geeks need to lighten up.

It’s really three Iowa trolls with like 10 screen names each. Real winners.

Also, if you want to isolate the microcosm of college sports that is the rivals message boards, you know what's an even worse look than fans griping about officiating? Its a bunch of keyboard hero Iowa fans obsessing over comments from an opposing teams fans. Now that's embarrassing if you ask me.
 
Sorry that the truth hurts.

Again, not using this in any bias theory any longer. It is what it is. But the graphic is correct. No holding penalty showed up in the stats during that time.

You can’t be serious. This really isn’t complicated. The graphic used the term “called” the penalty was called, but not accepted.

Had the graphic said the opposing team hadn’t been penalized it would be accurate.

The pure idiocy in this thread is shocking
 
It really is simple... I’m not trying to make it something it’s not. The graphic exists. How do you explain it? They obviously are talking about accepted penalties called against the other team. It takes someone to actually use their brain to try to understand what is being said. It’s called critical thinking. You have to make an inference. Do you know what that is? I have explained this like 4 times in this thread, but still posters such as yourself can’t utilize the critical thinking required to understand the graphic. The Iowa screen name tells me all I need to know, so I am trying to show grace to you in this.

Obviously only to you who are grasping at an illusion. You first argued the graphic was fact in supporting your claim, you then switch to it was implied and now it’s obvious.

Which one is it? Fact, implication or obvious to someone that rises to you level of intellectual capacity and critical thinking?

Sorry, I’m very confused

Then explain it Arnie. Why did they put the graphic up? Can’t wait to hear your brilliant philosophizing on this. Again, another stupid poster who stopped reading all of the posts in this thread.

I have a hard time believing BTN saw this and didn’t do a single shred of fact-checking. So why did they post the graphic Einstein?

Once again the graphic said “called” and that was proven factually incorrect. It’s really that simple.

Perhaps BTN made a mistake. When you’re not blinded by bias, the obvious, well becomes quite obvious.

To your question, I responded to what was posted and ran with it. After the graphic was posted, it was obvious that I was barking up the wrong tree. I even said there is no bias.

But then I began to wonder why they posted it to begin with. The obvious answer is that, when you look at the stat sheet, no holding penalties showed up. Therefore, the graphic was created. Do you really not get this?

I appreciate you recognize the error of your ways. Others in this thread are still making a falcious agrument.
 
Is Terd the Nebraskan form of Ebonics or are you unable to spell a basic noun?

Ha! OK macho man...Here’s maybe something even a stuck up elitist yuppie prick like you can understand... I’ll lay it out really clear for ya:

Git the F off our board, and mind your own business. I’m entitled to my opinions, and I believe Nebraska gets hosed by BIG refs during games against NW.

Opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one, but some are uglier than others. You have proven this adage true.
