Are we sure that Tim Weyland never reffed an NBA game? He’s about that consistent.

Laurie-the thing about not having Weyland do any Seattle games was in reference to Sigi’s college experience and being allowed to fill out a form and not have a specific referee. In the MLS Coaches can send in post game ref reports, I just loved how the four refs rand off the field after the game was over.

Moving on, Ken. (I personally don’t think two days is too long to process and work through something like this, but I can understand how others might.)

Let me gingerly suggest that it’s time we move past Weyland and start focusing on the upcoming game against Dallas. Maybe we did get hosed, but the appropriate response mechanisms are in action; there’s no point in continuing to dwell on it.

Beckenbauer fired the top official of the 2006 WC, who was slated for the WC final, for allowing Ghana to continuously delay the game. There is precedent and hope.

I have always been suspicious of this ref. He is always letting things slide, or calling things that aren’t there. Maybe they can implement instant replay for the games he works?
